    My son absolutely adored Dr. Peterson. I was so impressed at how he directed questions at my son and engaged him in his own healthcare. He truly had an incredible bedside manner and made my kiddo feel very comfortable. This is even to the point that my kid asked if we can go back and see him again the next day. That kind of rapport is not always easy to find in a provider, and Dr. Peterson did an amazing job.

    We felt like the provider wrote off our concerns regarding the chief complaint and attributed her symptoms to her having a cold. We now have to go back the next day to see a different provider due to symptoms getting worse.

    Dr. Peterson went above and beyond to show the genuine concern he had for my daughter. He made her feel more confortable in speaking to her in her native language (Spanish). He explained every question I had in clear detailed and explain everything I should be aware as far as second side effects. He told me what I should do after discharge as far as connecting with the clinic based on her health. He even called before leaving for the day to follow up on her. I cannot explain how important that was to me for him to continue to take time out of his day to genuinely care so much for my daughter's health to call to check up on her. He truly is knowledgeable in his field and has the heart to work with children. He truly deserves a raised, stipend or something for him to know how appreciated he is.

    I As a parent.Think that the doctor is awesome. I have a downsend of child and another child. That's very hyperactive. The doctor is very knowledgeable. He has young children Himself, which makes it a lot easier to work with in regards to both children. To taught the cake with the doctor he has a sister that has down syndrome. He knows about a child's developmental. Needs as well as any medical problems that could occur. I really like this, doctor.And he came highly recommended.

    The care provider made assumptions and seemed to question how I parent/care for my child at home. I did not appreciate their approach and how they communicated.

    Peterson Louis is very friendly which makes it easier to ask questions and presenting any concerns about my baby. I will definitely recommend any parent to him.
