Great physician
April 5, 2018Edith C.Verified patient
I was hopping to get more insight as to my pain and how it came to be. After looking over my xrays and chart I was told there was little that could be done for rehab or pain. I'm 53 and have been dealing with hip issues for over 15 years. I guess I thought I would get more help from a specialist.

January 10, 2018Nicholas M.Verified patient
I appreciated his easy to understand answers to my questions. I was thankful of options instead of surgical intervention right off. Although it will be difficult to comply completely with resting my knee because of work, he gave me enough information to modify my behavior and suggestions for what to do and not do.
December 24, 2017Veronica A.Verified patient
Doctor Petersilge is a very good communicator and very knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with him and will plan on working with him on my hip and leg problems going forward. I highly recommend him.

Short wait. Hard to rate stars: is one good for a short wait or is 5 good for excellent service? Doesnt tell you until you pick one

I thought I made an appointment to see the doctor, who I saw was his PA and he did come into the room for 20 seconds just to make sure I understood what his PA said to me.....

Very willing to listen to me, discussed appropriate options, treated the problem and I left so satisfied that I wish I had come months sooner!
April 7, 2016Ruth Anne J.Verified patient
Check the x-rays, gave me a thorough examination. Listen patiently to my issues ( I don't ramble on & on) he gave me his consensus to which I agreed and out the door I went. 30 minutes from the time of x-rays to walking out the door. I was however the first appointment
October 28, 2015Larry S.Verified patient
This visit like all previous ones, was excellent. I'm having no difficulties or problems. Everyone I've met on the staff has been friendly and kind. I've never felt "rushed through".
