During your visit, your doctor will explore your history, examine you with the appropriate procedures, possibly recommend that additional testing be done to find the root and extent of your problem(s) and openly discuss the financial options available to you. Should additional testing be ordered by your doctor, these tests and the reasons why they may be needed, will be discussed with you. Your doctor will develop a treatment plan that will best fit your health needs and welcomes any questions and/or concerns that you may have.
Services
Since Dr. Ken Peterson, DC ND began practicing in 1953 in Hermiston, OR, it has been our unrelenting quest to provide the highest quality of health care to our patients. We maintain a firm belief that our patients are not just a set of symptoms and problems, but real people with real needs. The Peterson Clinic has multidisciplinary Physicians that work as a team to help you, achieve your optimum health.
Over time, we have learned that what you think you have may not be what you actually have. Our ability to perceive determines how we relate and respond to our internal and external environments. If our body perceives an infection, then the immune system is activated. Our nervous system is the part of our body that mediates and integrates all of these perceptual functions. Your first visit to a new doctor can be stressful. Our intent is to make your first visit to our clinic a productive and pleasant experience.
Our physicians, Chiropractic and Naturopathic, have extensive training in examining, diagnosing and treating injuries, aches and pains. If the complaint is related to an auto accident, an athletic injury, yard work, a chronic condition or simply awoke with pain, we can find the problem and start the healing process.
Our practice is based on treating the whole person. Our physicians do not practice a recipe based treatment approach: If you have this then you take this. We prefer the individualized form of care that takes into account the many factors that influence our health. Some patients seek our care for specific problems, for example diabetes, other patients ask us to be their primary care physician.

Dr. Trent is fantastic! I've been having shoulder pain for 6-8 months and got several massages thinking it was just a knot. They didn't help at all so I decided to try a chiropractor for the first time. After one appointment I was pain free for months! I went back recently for another adjustment after some slight pain coming back but have been great since! He is always thorough but quick. Very happy with the results and care from him.

Have been using this clinic since 2011. Started with the flu and I had to fly in 3days. I knew the ER could be hours of waiting to just be sent home to rest. My daughter suggested Dr. K but I didn't really know much about natural medicine. And Chiropractic medicine was not in my vocabulary except to avoid. I was so grateful for the help and was able to fly home.
I felt better just after 24hrs. Since that time I have gained a wealth of information and Chiropractors and NDs are first on my list to see. I have voided unnecessary surgery on my wrist, control of my balance, recovery from a serious concussion and many more benefits. They actually find the cause of the problems and then educate you so you can take care of it yourself. I would recommend these doctors any day over a normal dr. visit.

He's a great doctor don't get me wrong but, there's one problem these days. I scheduled my appointment at 11:45 and the doctor barley comes and talks to me at 1:00 1 hour+ wait which sucks. I understand like 15-30 minutes but this is my third time waiting over an hour. Other than that he's a great doctor who's very knowledgeable!

I've experienced a lot of vertigo with getting my braces back on in November. Had no idea what was going on, completely dizzy, felt like I was going to pass out, etc. Dr T. Has been a miracle. My jaw was somewhat out of its alignment due to so much shifting going on in my mouth. I went a month before I was able to see him and he has helped be a sense of relief during my ortho experience.
Extremely knowledgeable, kind and truly cares about you as a patient. Never once have felt like he was trying to get me in and out of there. Highly recommend Dr T, feel like he truly tries to get to the root of your pain or discomfort.

Great Doctor, but not worth it. I moved 1.5 years after going to this doctor, never received a bill during this time and now, 3.5 years later they sent it to Credit collections, when they never tried calling me for over 1.8 years. Unprofessional business practice, dropped my almost perfect credit score of 834 to 719. Trust me they will waste your time on the back end.

I love the care I received at Peterson clinic but the billing staff really is quite lacking quality help. I received a letter for an over due account. It was for services received over 2 years ago. I have NEVER received a bill from their office up to this time. They threatened to turn me over to collections if it was not paid. Here is my issue: I paid a initial visit fee at my first visit, each visit after that, I asked the cashier how much I owed and was told that it was still covered by my initial payment.
I thought it was kind of strange but oh well! I guess it is hard them to understand why someone would be upset to receive a bill for over $200 after thinking there wasn't a balance due on their account. Good doctors, poor billing system and staff. Ask for office manager if you have an issue they will gladly tell you that they are currently out of the office. No resolutions for why this was allowed to happen.

Worthless. Was told to take magnesium which I had already been taking for two years. He told me to take more and I proceeded to have heart palpitations for two days. I went to my next appt. He told me to stop taking it. I waited almost an hour past my appt for him to spend 5 minutes with me. He told me " great news your legs isn't even shorter" like it being exactly the same was an accomplishment.
He did absolutely nothing and said see you back in three days. All he tried to do was push supplements. Like that was going to cure my SI disfunction. Was in complete agony. Helped myself be doing excercises I found on YouTube. Spent a total of 250.00 for nothing.

Dr Kris and Dr Anton are my team for all dimensions of my healthcare. They are very caring and kind and I recommend them to everyone. I have seen Dr Kris, off an on, for 25+ years. I started seeing Dr Anton last year when he first came to Peterson's as a brand new ND. I told Dr Alder that they remind me of the good old-fashioned doctor from Little House on the Prairie.
They are like part of my family. I am very proactive in my health and they are happy to allow me to be. I am not a number that is rubber-stamped through a cookie-cutter protocol. I am an individual and very much treated as such. I am grateful for Peterson Clinic.doctors and staff alike. I appreciate all of their efforts. I am about to check out their new website!

Though the doctors at Peterson clinic are great, I will never return due to the lack of professionalism and rude attitude by Tina (office manager). Their billing system is also terrible! I received bills from over a year ago due to their "upgraded" billing system. They also violated HIPPA and shared information with a family member. I do not recommend them!

Dr. Kenzie is absolutly fantastic! She is attentive, caring and really goes the extra mile for her patients. With that said, the front desk keeps me from giving this business 5 stars. Not only is it a mess up there (Papers, products and boxes everywhere!) But they are extremely unorganized and dysfunctional. I have sat in the waiting room waiting for my appointment for well over 45 minutes because they are focused on checking out 1 patient and forget about everyone sitting in the lobby. I'd love to say that was a one time occurrence but it happens every time I have an appointment.
I have never waited in the waiting room for less than an hour. As much as it pains me to say it, if the clinic doesn't get more organized I will be forced to find a new provider.
