If you only read one one line of this review, I recommend Pacific Foot and Ankle with complete confidence. The doctor/surgeon Dr. Dahl and my office point of contact Jasmine were the most genuine and caring people I have EVER delt with in the medical field.

I was primarily under the care of Dr. Chase Dahl, with Jasmine assisting in records. Both of which were so fantastic that I had to stop myself from telling them "I love you" on multiple occasions lol.

After getting a severe fracture of a metatarsal I did some research and found Pacific Foot and Ankle center. They are not local to me, quite far away honestly (and expensive with tolls) but it was completely worth it.

The office is clean and modern. I was able to do the majority of my paperwork ahead of time, digitally. I didn't deal with a calling tree, and easily spoke to a human every time I called. When I did leave a message after calling during after-hours, I received a prompt call back. EVERY SINGLE PERSON I spoke to was kind and considerate. Wait times were quick and all staff was friendly.

I am new to PPO's and asked quite a few questions that may be obvious for most people, but I always received a clear and easy to understand answer without every feeling like I was being spoken down to.

I needed fairly urgent surgery to avoid complications, and the surgeons; Dr. Dahl and Dr. Peterson, as well as the records person, Jasmine worked hard to get me the soonest possible appointment. Communication was honest and transparent, and I felt like I was being given the complete picture and total honesty from the start. I never felt like I was being "upsold" on surgery I didn't need.

The surgery was smooth and painless, and I felt well informed about the operation ahead of time. Post-op instructions were clear, and I was given clear contact information in the case of anything unusual or concerns.

AT THE FAULT OF MY PHARMACY I encountered an issue with picking up medication post op. Dr. Dahl stayed in communication with me from the moment I let them know there was an issue, and worked hard to ensure that the issue was resolved. It was quite late at night, so I can only assume that he was working "off the clock" and taking from their personal time the ensure I wasn't suffering, truly going above and beyond. I am so grateful. I want to emphasize, these aren't only good doctors.

They are good people.

I spoke briefly with Brooke in financing and she was also kind, and helped me understand billing in a straightforward way.

Every interaction I had at Pacific Foot and Ankle exceeded my expectations. If I ever need a podiatrist I will certainly return, and will recommend unconditionally.

Dr. Dahl, Dr. Peterson, Jasmine, and the entire team. Thank you.

This place is amazing. Came in because my friend recommended this place for my ingrown toenail. The staff is super friendly, the doctors make you feel super comfortable and are amazing. This is the best place to go. They are professional, great customer service, and handle the problem at hand. Thank you for your help...

I am THANKFUL for the magnificent service received from doctor David J Petersen, he took care of all my feet needs and did it with a smile for a period of a little over one year. This review it does not do justice to what he did for me. I can walk a lot better and my feet look the best they have ever been.

Sharing this experience to hopefully influence and benefit some of the readers. Highly recommend him to treat a wide range of your feet conditions. This THANKSGIVING, I am THANKING the one that gave me quality of life back with his expertise as well as his excellent interpersonal skills reflecting in a wonderful front desk staff. You can sense the smile from within when they love the job they are doing.

Thank you for your time reading this review.

Dr. Peterson did a fantastic job correcting my bunion problem and I would recommend anyone thinking of having foot surgery to visit his office. The surgery was over in a flash, very little pain and swelling. He is a truly wonderful human being with great bedside manner which counts in my book. I did researched for podiatrists in the area and decided on Dr. Peterson, and I'm so glad I did. Totally the right decision and I'm planning on getting my other foot done in a month or so.

For years, I’ve dealt with ingrown toenail on both big toes. Did my own version of bathroom medicine and it simply became worse. Searched for podiatrists around me, and either they never returned my calls, or wanted to do expensive procedures that weren’t required.

My wife found Dr. Petersen for me and made an appointment. To say my left big toe was in pain, would be an understatement. Dr. Petersen examined my toe, gave me my options, and I was able to make my decision right there, and did the procedure he recommended.

It’s been years since I’ve been able to walk around and not be in fear of accidentally hitting my toe on something or having my small children step on it and cause me to get angry at them.

Dr. Petersen is a true professional and really knows his craft. Office people are also very courteous and professional and always replied to my messages and reminded me of my appointment a few days prior.

Highly recommend this practice and give it 5-stars
