Dr. Horace Petersen, DO

Dr. Petersen is a God send! Not only is he very professional, he cares about your quality of life!! He spends time with you and explains what your MRI or Xrays show!

They charged nearly $600 dollars ($250 of that for being a new patient) to fire a laser at the warts and none of them went away. Months later I took my son to a dermatologist and told them of
