-Leslie Shubin in Alameda, CA and Scottsdale, AZ | Jun 20, 2017
Dr. Peatman is a wonderful doctor. He successfully performed a left hip replacement on May 3, 2011. Within seven weeks I was sailing and hiking. In 2012, I walked the Portuguese Camino from Lisbon to Santiago de Compostela, completing 315 of the 375 miles (time constraint only).
I have been living in Scottsdale, AZ the last few years but chose to return to Dr. Peatman for my right hip replacement, June 6, 2017. I would travel 10,000 miles if I had to to have Dr. Peatman for a hip replacement.

I have been a patient for different injuries over the past 4 years. With every visit the caring clear communication is a constant. I even brought my Mom for an injury she had and would continue to refer family and friends.

When you are dealing with Dr. Peatman, you are dealing with a very highly regarded professional, a person who has both experience and knowledge. Dr. Peatman has operated on my hamstring, and so I checked him out by asking around. He has a great reputation, and he does many surgeries at Summit Medical Center. He receives great praise from other doctors at that medical center. His capable medical assistants are available to answer your routine medical questions. My surgery went very well.

-Paula Myers in Alameda, CA | Mar 14, 2017
Dr. Peatman's explanation of the surgery, the preparation for it and the recovery was clear and easy to understand. His attitude about what I could expect afterwards was positive. The fact that he does several of these surgeries every week was also reassuring that he'd be good at it. The team at Webster Orthopedics is just as supportive and helpful. Their system to stay in touch both before and after surgery is very effective. Any questions emailed to them are answered the same day.

Dr. Peatman is personable, knowledgeable and available. I had a minor problem post-operatively, and he took time on his day off to call me to discuss this. His support staff is competent and kind.

-STC in Alameda, CA | Jan 31, 2017
Dr. Peatman is very caring & takes the time to explain your X-ray & MRI. In diagnosing my issue he tried non invasive treatments first. When the decision was made for hip replacement he was very supportive & encouraging that I was making the right decision. He truly wanted to get me back to living my normal life pain free.

During our first meeting, Dr. Peatman gave me a sense of confidence in his ability to do the best job that he could. He is warm and engaging.....great sense of humor, all which help when making such a serious decision. He listened and gave me honest feedback to my questions and concerns. I highly recommend Dr. Peatman!

-Gregory A Akula in Walnut Creek, CA | Dec 13, 2016
He is extremely engaging, straight forward, and informative to the patient in a VERY calming relaxing manner.
Feel most comfortable in talking & understanding of what's about to happen to me and how I'm going to get back to some normality.

Dr peatman makes you feel comfortable and he explains things thoroughly. He not only talks but he listens to his patients concerns and that why I like dr peatman. His staff at the outpatient surgery center were very warm and professional, and the atmosphere at the surgery center was very relaxing and calm which makes you calm if you have surgery anxiety. I've already recommended dr peatman. I recently had knee surgery and I'm two weeks out and I'm doing very well he did a great job.

-Jane in Berkeley | Nov 26, 2016
Dr. Peatman is very thorough and efficient. The surgery went very well and the only issue is severe pain, Normally I don't take pain meds, but I have planned every four to six hours where I will be and what food I will need to eat in the middle of the night so I can take the Percoset. I still haven't asked him all the questions I am trying to ask because he is busy.

-William in Richmond, CA | Nov 24, 2016
When I came to Dr. Peatman my condition was so extreme that he recommended that both hips have a total replacement. Based on X-rays, my description of pain and loss of mobility, and Dr. Peatman's experience it seemed to be the best solution.
I have just had the second surgery, (13 days after the first), and all is going well.
The timing of surgeries and recovery have gone as scheduled. Many thanks to Dr. Peatman and his team for the analysis, repair and support.

-jj in Berkeley, CA | Nov 08, 2016
I had full right knee replacement in May 2016. I had 3 weeks in home physiotherapy (PT). I continued PT at an outside facility. Now No pain. I am still doing my PT. Then I had fill left knee replacement in October 2016. I am doing home PT now. I had good experience during the recovery.

-Leia Phillips in San Leandro, CA | Oct 31, 2016
20 days ago, I had full knee replacement. Although it is a very difficult healing process, I am healing nicely and this morning I was able to walk, without my cane, to my front porch. Personally, I can't say enough wonderful words about Dr. Peatman and his amazing staff. Anything I needed was handled quickly. In three months, I will be doing my other knee. I'm looking forward to many years of mobility? Don't wait to get moving?

-Stuart Williams in Concord, CA | Oct 18, 2016
First, Dr. Peatman came very highly recommended by the nursing staff at Alta Bates Summit and by the administrative executives.
He is very friendly, very professional and very confident in his abilities.
His work has been outstanding, from initial surgery to follow up and scheduling the next surgery. Everything worked to the patients benefit.
It is clear that his medical practice is patient centered. His decisions seem spot on and his bedside manner helped ease a nervous patient.

San Leandro, CA | Oct 18, 2016
I recommend Dr. Peatman. He performed a hip replacement for me about which I had many questions prior to surgery and after. He, and his staff, took time to answer my questions until I completely understood the changes. I had confidence in him both before and after the surgery.

-MN in Piedmont, CA | Aug 23, 2016
Dr. Peatman has been my surgeon for both my hip replacement and my shoulder surgery. He and his team are excellent. They are experienced and professional while at the same time they are friendly and careing. We tried non surgical options before the decision was made to operate. Dr. Peatman explained, in detail each step we took. I am very pleased with the outcome of both surgeries.

-Dave | Jul 28, 2016
Dr. Peatman assisted me with knee surgery; he and his staff were great to deal with. As one would expect, Dr. Peatman knew his stuff, but what I really appreciated was his willingness to ensure I understood what was happening with my knee, and the best course of fixing. My surgery was smooth and post-op visits with Dr. Peatman went very well.

Unfortunately, I have seen Dr. Peatman for quite a number of injuries and injury/age related joint problems. He is very thorough and shows concern for his patients even to check on me while out of town! He works hard on resolving all of my issues prior to recommending surgery!
