Making the appointment was easy and fun! The ladies were so friendly and helpful-on the phone AND in person! I found the Dr to be very informative, and spoke to me without being condescending. I left with a comfortable feeling that I was understood and all my questions were answered. I’ve worked in the medical field and know how some doctors can be, Dr. Petterson is wonderful. I highly recommend him .
