- Bio:
Dr. Peterson treats conditions of the foot and ankle, including trauma, diabetic foot care and wound healing, as well as primary podiatric care and surgery.
He chose podiatry because he suffered sports injuries to his feet and ankles when he was in high school. He likes helping people recover from injuries and chronic conditions of the foot and ankle.
Dr. Peterson has volunteered on service and medical mission trips to Northern Peru and San Miguel, Mexico. He likes to communicate with Spanish-speaking patients.
In his free time, he enjoys sports, especially playing and watching basketball, snowboarding, hiking and spending time with friends and family.

Patient comments are from the question "How likely would you be to recommend this provider to your family and friends."
Dr Peterson took the time to actually show me my xrays from earlier and from today for comparison. He showed me the fracture and how it has healed. He gave a lot of information and I appreciate that.
Excellent visit
All options and outcomes discussed. Blood work adjusted for medication to be taken. Well Informed.
Best experience
Even though I was not thrilled with my diagnosis, Dr Peterson was clear and answered all my questions and gave me options.
Dr Blake Peterson was kind, pleasant and reviewed my x-rays and condition. He answered all my questions clearly and always with kindness
He's a good doctor
I was explained everything with kindness and thoroughness. Answering both my husband's & my questions and giving us some alone time to discuss our options. Extremely gentle while examining my leg & ankle and while putting on a soft cast to secure my ankle and give me a little relief from the pain.
I felt he may have been rushed.
Dr Peterson listen to my situation and helped me so that I will be walking comfortably during my Holy Land trip.
The nurses and Dr was amazing! They were busy but that's to be expected on a Monday.
Outstanding. Don't let this professional leave!!!

First meeting, everything went well.
Dr Peterson was great we need more doctors like him on the coast. Let's try and keep him!!!

Good experience, doctor helpful and had solutions
He was very gentle and through. I was impressed that he listened to my concerns about medication.
Dr. Peterson is Kind and Very Personable Very Knowledgeable Help Solve My pain right away with Braces I have recommended him to my neighbor
Good stuff and left with necessary pain relief (shot) and brace.
Very good experience. I was in and out within 20 minutes from the time I arrived until I left, that included my time chatting with the receptionist. I was not rushed at all
Blake was excellent.
He has been unresponsive to my concerns about how the boot has rubbed the skin off my ankle, continually urging me to wear the boot. No response to my questions about the bone growth stimulator I left at his office.
Very much, provider is one of the best
Dr. Peterson addressed health problems I did not know I had, and with his help I was referred to a vascular surgeon. He went up and beyond to help me get a great physical therapist. I am very grateful to him for all he has done to help me return to an active walking lifestyle. Thank you, Dr. Peterson.
No complaints
Knowledgeable and provided comfortable care.
Dr Peterson read and knew my medical history. I was impressed by his professionalism. I have recommended him to my neighbor.
Very empathetic.
The Dr was very good and I felt like he listened to me and understands my issues.
I liked the fact that Dr. Wood listened carefully to my concerns. He was patient and did not appear to be in a hurry to get to his next patient. He spent a good amount of time with me and I had a number of concerns after brain surgery. He talked to me about each type of medication that would help, as well as more natural medications that were over the counter. He also gave me a very detailed print out of each medication, what it was for as well as pictures of the medication to order so this made it very easy to figure out what to do when we returned home.
Dr Peterson is very caring, warm and professional. Would definitely go to him again and recommend to friends and family.
I feel very comfortable being in the care of Dr Peterson
Good
It was a good visit I got a lot of information about my future of my feet
I have seen Dr Peterson twice and both times had significant improvement after being treated by him.
Very professional and through medical staff.
Our son is a physician and he was impressed that the conversation did not go immediately to surgery, quite the opposite
