Dr. Tamara Peterson is fabulous! Great bedside manner, explanations of procedures and timely communications. She and her medical assistant, Tess, made my experience so relaxing and provided information at a non-medical level so I understood well what was transpiring. Both were so easy to talk to and answered all of my questions. Thanks so much!

I was recommended this office by a friend and have been seeing Tamara for a few years. She listens to concerns and when I needed a last minute apt for hives the office was able to get me in quickly.

The doctor is very professional; however, my appointment was at 3:20 p.m., and I was not seen until 4:20 p.m. I believe this affects the overall rating, as waiting an entire hour to be attended is unacceptable.
