What patients say about Peterson Health

From the time I entered, in the predawn hours, until I was released the next day, every member of the staff was not just competent, but they were overly caring, exceptionally kind and exceedingly warm and friendly. They took their time, explained procedures, visited with me when they had time and made my stay comfortable, easy, and dare I say – pleasant and fun!
