The reviews listed below were collected independently of Capital Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
I appreciate his bedside manner and professionalism. I felt respected and felt I was listened to and had a good discussion with him on my knee consultation. He was very engaged with me and forthcoming with information and in giving answers to my questions. Filled all the boxes with my expectations of a health care provider. My experience lately with providers have not met my expectations so I’m thankful Dr Peterson has met that bar.

It was a pleasure to meet Dr. Todd Peterson at Boone County Hospital for my first visit with my issues. He was very professional and knowledgeable in my assessment of my knees and explaining the options that could be taken to remedy the problems that I was having.
