Compassion, friendliness- Western style, of course, empathy, full information, and full responses so you understand what is going on, or answers to specific questions, I would rather not go anywhere else.

What followed was not the provision of medical care consistent with Nevada law or accepted standards of practice, but a sequence of dismissals, misrepresentations, and dangerous prescribing decisions (AGAIN) that placed me, the patient, at risk and violated my rights. 1. Clinical Analysis of the Discharge Record Even though the staff verbally "scoffed" and suggested it was just a 'kidney stone', the After Visit Summary tells a different story: Official Diagnosis: They have officially documented Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction as a primary diagnosis. This is not a "simple kidney stone"; it is the exact pathology identified at the first ER. Abnormal Lab Results: My urinalysis showed Trace Protein and 1+ Ketones, which indicates my kidneys are under stress. Medication: They administered Ketorolac (Toradol) at 6:32 PM. Toradol is an NSAID that can be hard on the kidneys; given my history of kidney failure, this needs to be monitored closely. Breach of the Standard of Care: This occurs when a provider fails to provide the level of care a competent professional would. (e.g., dismissing an acute UPJ obstruction as "chronic pain" without new imaging). Failure to Diagnose / Delay in Diagnosis: The refusal by SMRMC to perform a new CT or MRI despite worsening lab markers (Protein/Ketones) and a 1.9 cm lesion. Patient Abandonment/Violation of Rights: Repeated requests for a Patient Advocate were denied, and call buttons were ignored. I WILL ADD THIS TO MY ON-GOING CASE, PICTURED BELOW AND THE COMPARISONS OF BOTH EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT FALIURES.

If you have any immune deficiency problems, chronic infection he is the man. I was sick for four years, had multiple surgeries, and an infection that became resistant to antibiotics. I saw doctors throughout San Diego, including infectious disease specialists, I had home health nurses with IV antibiotics and could not get out of bed. I was then referred to Stanford where I had another surgery with one of the top doctors. He helped but new we were missing something and sent me to Dr Peterson . I now am living a normal life.

But, if you get in and develop a relationship, Dr Peterson can help you, this man will change your life. He reminds me of a real life "House" and dug into my health issues with tests that no other "normal" "everyday" Doctor would ever take the time and patience and he found the root of my medical issue. If you just need an MD and are frustrated don't bother. If you need a real Doctor to help you when all the others just stick to routine, Dr Peterson is your man and worth the wait.
