BEWARE! I'm sure there are hundreds of women who have had positive experiences with Dr. Peterson, as he came recommended by almost everyone I asked. I honestly don't know why! He was aloof and seemed uncaring at almost every visit, but he was "the best on the island," so I went with him As my OB. About 2 months before my due date, I developed a hard spot in my breast. I told Dr. Peterson about it and his reply was "It's your milk coming in." He didn't look at the lump or even touch it! As a first time mom, I figured the "best doctor" knew what he was talking about. At each consequent visit for 2 months, I mentioned it to the doctor and nurse, and always got the same response. A few weeks before giving birth, I awoke with a terrible pain in my side. After a visit from EMS, I decided to forego the ER (pain had subsided) and call Dr. Peterson the next day. I was told it was the positioning of the baby. Fast forward... I gave birth, but still had the lump in my breast and pain in my side. For 2 days, the pain continued until at the urging of the neonatal nurse, an ultrasound was ordered. After a battery of scans, it was discovered that the lump in my breast was breast cancer that had metastasized to my liver, spine, and hip. The only thing I can remember Dr. Peterson (who became very caring at that point) saying was "Pregnant women don't get cancer." over and over. Well obviously they do, and after doing research, I read 1 in 3000 are diagnosed. It would've taken a few minutes, if not seconds, to check the lump. I don't know what would have been done differently and how it would have affected my pregnancy, but I do think that had Dr. Peterson showed even a little bit of concern, the cancer could have been found earlier and perhaps not have spread. Over a year later, I am still undergoing treatment for the cancer that has now spread to my brain. I realize mine is a special case that most women will not experience, but if you are looking for a doctor who will listen to and respond to your concerns, seek another doctor!

HORRIBLE experience. The woman at the front is so incredibly rude. The woman who does the billing J’s the doctors wife and is insanely greedy! We were not told about any costs up front- at our first appointment we were charged $750 without any notice. At that first appointment the doctor, without looking at my records or having done a physical examination told me I would have trouble giving birth, that I would likely go into-pre term labor, and told me that I would get fat and not to argue with him when he calls me fat. I’m 6ft y’all and started my pregnancy at 125 lbs. He told me I was NOT to exceed 150. At each appointment he came in smelling so strongly of cigarette smoke- as a very nauseas pregnant woman in my first trimester it made me SO SICK. He gave little to no advise on what to do, what not to do, or what to expect. We ended up transferring practices and getting my records from the front office was a NIGHTMARE. Then trying to get the woman in charge of billing to file my claim was even worse. We paid $1,500 out of pocket for 3 appointments consisting of about an hour of time with the doctor/nurses TOTAL. DO NOT GO TO THIS PRACTICE!!

Probably the worst experience as a new mom. His nurse Tiffany I believe her name is, is great. His appointments are so short and you feel rushed. But they discharged me at 29 weeks because I denied taking a covid test, (which we were locked down and I went no where), but he was fine with me not taking it in July. (In October he said it was an issue) I also showed them some paper work they requested from my old doctor on my patient portal. They were fine with that and never said a word about it not being sufficient. (In June). So fast forward to September/October. I get a phone call from his wife at 7pm (unprofessional) telling me he’s no longer caring for me as a patient and I’m discharged. I’m 29 weeks, no complications, showed up to my appointments. You know it was super hard finding a doctor to take me on, just because he let me go so late in pregnancy. I ended up flying home (Military family) and finding a doctor, which was amazing. She ended up catching that I had Preeclampsia. Which explained my headaches I was telling doctor Peterson about (he thought covid), he never once checked on any levels to see if I actually may have had pre E. But thankfully I went to another doctor that treated me and I delivered with no complications. If I would’ve stayed here and delivered I’m not sure what would’ve happened since what I had was serious. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this OB to anyone.

Wanted to do another transvaginal ultrasound himself instead of accepting the one I had done 3 weeks ago. As someone in the medical field I know there is nothing that he was going to see any different than what was already done, in my particular case, that would change my treatment plan. This is simply a way to increase billing and is irresponsible. And it is a difficult test for me to go through, so obviously he cares more about billable tests that actual patient care.

I had my first child with Dr. P and he was excellent. He was honest and forth coming the entire time and answered all the questions I had. He is very funny and like I said honest, some people may not appreciate how honest he is (so i have been told) but I wold rather my doctor be honest and tell me how it is rather than spare my feelings and be a pushover. I ended up having my child at 27 weeks and he took all the necessary precautions before delivery and after. He always checked up on us and the baby, keeping contact with Miami Children's where my baby was air lifted. I would recommend him to anyone.

Amazing amazing amazing !! Staff , doctor all above was perfect. Love everyone there ❤️

The best place ever! Dr Peterson is really a Professional! He is the only one who figured out how to make my lips shape equal again after last summer's accident. He showed me all labels on the stuff he uses to treat me, I think it is very good honest approach for your clients. The girls at the reception are very, very, very friendly, which is very important for me; I love feeling like I am in a family! And yes, I adore Isabel - she is always trying to find the best time for me; I am constantly in a hurry. And I always enjoy Isabel's Boho-style and a great jewelry choice, and the entire team is just beautiful ladies! Great job!

BEST OFFICE IN FLORIDA! Guys, I live in Orlando and I personally find it beyond worth it to hop in a car and drive 7 hours for their services. The office is always so clean (especially now during COVID). I see them sanitize everything between patients. Also, Dr. Peterson is groundbreaking! Im serious!! He's honest and explains your concerns thoroughly. Not to mention he is funny and doesn't push treatments and services for profit. He will give you his true opinion 100% of the times, all while making you comfortable and relaxed. The staff is very friendly and always welcome me with a warm smile. If your considering this office, stop waisting your time and call for an appointment.

Best doctor ever!! My entire pregnancy was so smooth and happy because of doctor Peterson and his staff! The most professional, able and caring doctor I've been to. He takes his time to explain everything and actually listens to your concerns. I trust him completely for all my obgyn needs. The office personnel are very helpful and easy to talk to. The nurse are the best, she knows their patients very well. I only have good things to say about him and his practice! Plus he is an amazing human being with a huge heart!!!

Dr. Peterson helped me through a really tough health scare. Very knowledgeable and informative. Always puts me at ease and I feel relaxed and comfortable. His office is always calling and emailing me to make sure I remember my appointments. Thankfully. Best OBGYN I've been to.

One of the best doctors in the Keys. Dr. Peterson listens and cares about his patients. Staff is friendly and the office is very clean.

Excellent care, great bedside manner, immaculate office and an amazing office staff. Dr. Peterson has been caring for me for more than 20 years and delivered my baby. I wouldn't choose anyone else. Love this doctor and his practice!
