Dr Peterson & her staff are amazing! I can’t speak highly enough about the way they care about their patients.

Dr Peterson and the staff were nice and friendly, but friendliness does not equal competence. I went there for surgery and not only did I not see results, I saw a drastic worsening of my body. After a liposuction I was advised to keep a compression suite on (recommended by them). Upon my follow up appointment, the staff removed the pads from the undergarment. Immediately the garment caused SEVERE uncomfortableness! I called several times to complain was just instructed to keep wearing the garment as is! After 2 weeks it became so unbearable that I was I tears! I informed them and was instructed to come back to the office. I showed them the huge indentation in my stomach caused by the garment cutting into my stomach. I also asked it it would go away. I als question why they removed the padding... That appeared to have been in place to prevent the very thing from happening. Almost as if it had happened before. They could not tell me why. They told me to just put on a cheaper brand of compression. Clothing, which I did as directed, and the pain stopped. However here I am 1.5 years later and I still have the VERY bad indentation in my stomach. I lost on inch what so ever, and I question what wa actually done to me in the first place. My biggest problem is that I can back many times and not once was there any genuine concern from Dr Peterson about the situation, not once did she speak about the HIGE mistake of her staff or her. Not once did she imply that she could or would consider fixing this horrible situation! Sure they showed the typical smile and cheerful (irritatingly so when you are in this situation) expressions, but they were useless and complacent... And neglectful! I paid good money for this procedure and they treat me like It means nothing to them. I would not go there again. The Dr and her team are really horrible at what they do. They do the motions, but can't actually do the work. Even the post surgery check ups were a huge waste of my time! I regret going here and and want others to make the same mistake I did!

Dr. Peterson is absolutely amazing! Hands down the best in the area! I drove over an hour to see her for juvederm injections, and it was absolutely worth it! She took the time before the procedure to answer all of my questions and she really put me at ease. The procedure itself was virtually painless and quick, and I am beyond thrilled with the results! She did an amazing job! I will definitely be going back to her again in the future and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic cosmetic/ reconstructive surgeon! She is wonderful!! Definitely 5 stars!!

I was there for about 6 times to treat my age spots. I have to say there is nothing working at all and my skin got even worse than before. They just kept asking me to try something else but I really could not see any results.

I consulted with Dr Peterson about explantation of 28 year old silicone breast implants. I expressed my opinion about having Breast Implant Illness as I have been sick for years. At first she did not believe in BII. After seeing me and speaking to me about it, she was more receptive to my condition. I explanted with her on December 16, 2016. Her incisions are immaculate and her manner was professional. I have amazing pictures of the procedure, she tested for cancer and am very pleased with the end result. BII is not widely known or received in the plastic surgery community. Having a PS that will work with you on it is a godsend. 7 months later, I feel 75% better, I have gealed and look good. Thank you Dr Peterson for believing in me.. Nadine Rousey

Dr. Peterson is an outstanding Plastic Surgeon! I'm very pleased with my results. She is professional, talented and highly respected in the medical community here in Central PA. I simply cannot say enough positive things about her skills and I've been treated by her multiple times. You will be in good hands with Dr. Peterson and her wonderful staff!
