Dr Petsche was pleasant & professional. He was very knowledgeable about my injury & made me feel I was in good hands. We scheduled an MRI & I return to review the results with him on Monday! The entire team was friendly & considerate.

Class act grade A #1 FVO DOCS. after dealing with him for years I only have 1 question....does he have the fountain of youth in his back yard? He never ages!! Keep up the good work doc.i wish FVO had frequent flier miles by now i could have earned enough points to fly to Italy. I refer anyone who needs Orthopedic work to FVO and tell them don't waste your time with anyone else they are the best.

I injured my shoulder exercising, and our neighbor recommended Dr Petsche. I found him to be friendly as well as knowledgeable. After a thorough exam, Dr. Petsche was able to diagnose my condition on the spot. His use of ultrasound when administering my cortisone injection was confidence inspiring!
