About Dr Peatman
I like Dr. Peatman a lot and appreciate his care. It’s becoming harder & harder to book appointment's with him. Last appointment took a week with back & forth calls to his scheduler, felt like the run around & not pleasant.
I trust Dr. Peatman. I am retired, moderately active for exercise/fitness, on the tall side, and tend to carry a few pounds over ideal weight. Dr Peatman, has guided me through two recent, overlapping joint problems, a hip and a shoulder. Dr Peatmen, was thoughtful, demonstrably attentive, analytical, articulate, measured, current, efficient, and concise. Treatment direction was formed interactively, over time, unaggressively, and not gratuitous at any point, and it has poven to be spot on for both joints. For the hip, a replacement was successfully performed by Dr Peatman's colleague and included a smart, active recovery program. For the shoulder, patience with physical therapy training (3rd party) and allowance for healing is proving effective for avoiding surgery that otherwise might have been opted for early on.
Good quick and listen
YOU understand and know my body does not work normally. And you are willing to try tricking my body, for the correct response. Thank you for trying and understanding.
Dr Peatman is great person and Doctor. I had 2 knee replacements and Im doing very well. He is kind, experienced, dedicated. I recommend him very highly.
Dr Peatman did knee and hip replacements surgery on me in 2018. He took great care of me, he’s the best.
Dr. Peatman is great. Explains everything very clearly, shows great patience and clearly is an excellent physician. The back office staff is also very professional and efficient.
I have seen Dr. Peatman since 2012 for all of my orthopedic issues. I have had both knees replaced and both hips replaced. All 4 surgeries were very successful, and I was back to a normal routine in 2 months. I play golf and walk 18 holes. Dr, Peatman is very professional, listens to my issues and provides thoughtful answers, I have recommended Dr. Peatman to all my friends with orthopedic issues and they have had a similar experience, I would highly recommend Dr Peatman
Knee pain.
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Peatman for about a year for osteoarthritis, hyperextension of the left knee, and illiotibial band syndrome of the left knee. I’ve just started physical therapy again, which needed to be postponed after the first two sessions due to two surgeries I needed to get done. Dr. Peatman is patient and explains and demonstrates in detail what exercises I should be working on with my physical therapist. He, along with the physical therapist, suggested I purchase a small percussion massage gun to ease pain in my knee, and he demonstrated safety measures and showed me exactly where the illiotibial band is located in order to avoid any injuries. I have begun to be able to bend that knee a bit.
My experience with Dr Peatman excellent Orthopedic physician wonderful person very concerned with my care.
Dr. Peatman, replaced both my knees. He helped me with all my physical structural issues because of a serious car accident. He always took his time explaining what was the best options he recommended, and informed me of other options including doing nothing. I trust him and feel confident i am getting the best care possible. Eugene Agress
Dr Peatman is amazing- but when I tried to book appointment with him they said he was retiring in December. Is this true??
He's a nice kind& a pleasant smiling MD.He integrates patient education in every appt. I have with him .A good listener.He's open to my inquiries & gives a thorough explanation.He recommends treatment options& guides me to make one that would be beneficial.Indeed a good patient advocate!!!
Dr.Thomas Peatman,Hip Resurfacing Surgery.... I was in so much pain with my hip. I thought I would lose my mind.. I was referred to Dr. Peterman by another orthopedic surgeon in the same building. She told me I needed a total hip replacement. I had been reading a magazine in the waiting room concerning knee resurfacing surgery.. I said too bad they don't do this for hip replacements. She said" There is hip replacement surgery. I just don't perform them, but Dr. Peatman is qualified to do hip resurfacing surgery". She called his office and I went straight to his office.. was the kindest doctor full of knowledge still very young at the time, he put me at ease and explained everything about the surgery. Having hip replacement surgery was the best decision I've ever made in my life. I've had absolutely no pain in the hip., the morning after my surgery, I hesitated to put weight on that leg for fear of the pain that would happen in my hip. The nurse encouraged me go ahead. It'll be OK,I put my weight on the leg, in total amazement,I had absolutely zero pain deep in my hip. I had forgotten what it felt like to have zero pain in my hip. It was and still is to this day, amazing to be without pain. I love my hip-still to this day love my hip resurfacing surgery. I am so thankful for Dr Thomas Peatman. It goes without saying Dr. Peatman has and always will have his own special place in my heart. His office staff were also wonderful to me. I will add I was his first Hip Replacement Surgery. Talented wonderful surgeon. Yes I know. I'm just a little prejudice,after all, he gave me back my life he gave me back movement dancing ,walking even setting pain-free.
Dr. Peatman is the Best Orthopedia Doc ever!!! I have so much confidence is his diagnosis and action plans. Down-to-earth, yet absolutely brilliant.
After 5 months of X-rays, MRI, EMG and Scan with NO diagnosis and consequently NO treatment, at Emergency Service & Boomerang HC, at 1st visit Dr. Thomas Peatman requested a X-ray at his location and then asked me where the pain is stronger touching 3 places. I did not have to say anything, screaming was my answer. Dr. Peatman expected this to be the damaged area and immediately asked me if an injection he was prepared with, was okay? Then he sent me to Premier Surgery Center, where an Injection Foramen Epidural L/S changed my health condition. I am looking forward for my May 22 appointment with Dr. Peatman. OUTSTANDING = better than I ever expected.
Dr Pearman is very caring and knowledgeable!
Dr. Peatman is the best! He has the combination of experience, expertise, and patience with the ability to simplify your situation. I feel fortunate to have him as my doctor.
The Dr. took his time, did not rush me out. Gave me my options and discussed thoroughly and he has great manners. Very nice guy.
I have not been a patient of Dr. Peatmans for too long but the times I have seen him I was impressed . He is very friedly and professional and explains everything well. His injections are painless . I also like the fact that he is on time for the appintments. I highly would recomend him.
Great experience fine doctor.
Im very happy to see my Dr Thomas Peatman who is the best Dr thanks you work
I have visited Dr. Peatman six times now for chronic soft tissue pain and dysfunction. He is attentive, knowledgeable, and great with targeted lidocaine and cortisone shots. He also had a hunch about nerve impingement in my neck which, after doing in-house imaging at his office, was proven correct. The fact that Dr. Peatman used to do surgery is clear in the quality of his work. I've made more progress on my chronic issues with him than with anyone in the last 10 years. Very highly recommended.
Dr. Peatman has helped me sort out some pain issues in my knees. He listens to what I have to say and provides excellent care. So glad he is there to help me through it all.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Peatman for several years for knee and hip issues. He is a very kind person who takes the time to listen and develops a reasonable course of treatment. Despite the practice being very busy, I never feel rushed. I highly recommend him. A. Brandt
Dr. Peatman was great. He spent a lot of time discussing my husband's issues. We did not feel rushed and we felt he really cared. The staff is also friendly and efficient. Great experience!
Thoughtful, experienced and great bed side manner.
Dr. Peatman is a superb physician. I have had several occasions to meet with him regarding knee issues over the years. He is patient, thorough, friendly, highly professional and an excellent communicator. He always takes the times to fully explain his findings and the treatment options available. I give Dr.Peatman my highest recommendation.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Peatman. He replaced my left hip in 2021, during the pandemic, when my regular provider would not. I was limping and in pain. Almost 3 years later I’m probably in the best shape of my life; weight training and roller skating. I truly believe I received the best hip in the world. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him. He’s also a really nice person!
Dr. Peatman is an amazing and caring doctor.
I enjoy going in to the office. Everyone is friendly and Dr. Peatman is the best. I would recommend them for any Orthopedic services.
Dr. Peatman is kind and caring. He takes the right amount of time for you to be heard, and most important he HEARS what you are saying. Many doctors are on such a time crunch that quality care can sometimes slip away. Dr. Peatman has always taken the necessary time for me, the staff is also of like mind, they are a great team of professionals.
I returned to Dr. Peatman seven years after he performed a partial replacement on my right knee - an unqualified success - hoping for help with other issues. In the meantime I had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s and developed hip bursitis, a cranky left knee, and severe back pain. We have solved all three orthopedic problems over the last year and I couldn’t be happier! He has made it his mission to keep me moving, which is critical,with Parkinson’s, and does so with humor and compassion. What a godsend!
I’m grateful I have Dr. Peatman as my “project manager” to oversee and advise me on all of my orthopedic needs. He performed my hip replacement in 2017 and it’s almost miraculous how beautiful the outcome has been. He is brilliant and compassionate and absolutely the best!
Dr Pittman has helped me with my left hip I've been in so much pain and I appreciate his knowledge of you pain.
Dr Peteman was very empathetic and caring. He knew what I needed to do with my knee and helped a lot!
Excellent service

Excellent customer service, very attentive to my needs
Great Doctor
From day one of meeting Dr.Thomas Peatman,I was very impressed by the way he excerpted, me as one of his patients, and I love the way that he explained himself to me, and the concern that he had for me as his patient I would recommend Dr. Peatman in a very highly way to anyone that needs to be seen, with the same experience that I've and that I'm still seeing him for, Dr. Peatman you are one of the best, that's how I feel about you, thanks for excellent service. FROM Earnestine Barze
Dr. Thomas Peatman is my orthopedist. He has been one of the best Dr.s I have been lucky enough to work with. Ever since a completely successful anterior right hip replacement in 2015, he has helped me with many other issues. He has always been there for me with tremendous empathy, professional expertise, and a common sense approach. I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate him.
I didn't have to wait very long.. Dr.Peatman showed professionalism, patients and and understanding. Here address my problems right away.
Dr Peatman is the absolute best. He is thorough & caring. Thank you so much Dr P.
Dr. Peatman has been a great help to me over the past several years. He is very warm and patient and provides me with excellent service. I'm so glad I found him.
I was very pleased with Dr Thomas explaining my situation to me in detail. The overall visit was great.
Though he does not perform surgery at this point, I consider Dr. Thomas Peatman a trusted advisor in the care of my knees and hips and, well, of me. He listens, helps me consider more and less invasive options and really respects me as a person. I value his objective judgement.
Dr Thomas Peatman, has been my orthopedic surgeon for many many years and I could not ask God for a better doctor. Thank you Dr Peatman
Dr Peatman at Golden State Orthopedics is a great doctor. Never rushes and always takes his time to get to the root of your pain. I’d highly recommend him for your knee issues, as well as Dr Schwartz there for your upper extremity care .
Dr. Peatman consulted, advised, diagnosed and treated me for the past ten years. This includes an array of visits discussing joint related issues including arthritis and bursitis. He also performed a knee replacement which allowed me to return to my normal active life. In addition, he replaced one of my wife’s hips flawlessly as well. We have found Dr. Peatman to be knowledgeable, forthright and creative in his approach to assessment and treatment of orthopedic medical challenges. He is and has been courteous, witty and humorous in our interactions. It is without reservation that I recommend him and his team as a resource for anyone’s orthopedic concerns. Don Arnold
Doctor Peatman was extremely professional and patient with my care. I respect this man a whole lot. Thank you very much for the positive care, Eddie.
Dr. T. W. Peachman exemplifies — Best of Both: personal client concern & professional diagnostic competence!
Dr Peatman, I had laser surgery on my right knee nearly 20 years ago, I now have a tear in my left knee and am told by a doctor out here in tracy that all I need is a steroid shot due to having arthritis and don't worry about the tear.....I need your opinion please
I appreciate the bedside manner of Dr Peatman, he is definitely patient oriented and does an outstanding job in answering questions and taking care of your needs. I would highly recommend him for any of your orthopedic needs!!
Dr Peatman at Golden State Orthopedics is really amazing. He always put me at ease wit what ever issue I present. Thank you Dr Peatman.
My hip problem has improved so much since I started seeing Dr Peatman. I highly recommend him.
Compassionate, smart, and gives you the time you need.
I find Dr. Peatman very helpful and honest.
High on my list for good quality services, friendly people feels like you get better when you walk into office
I have been seeing Dr. Peatman for a few years now. He has been helping me with a knee problem. Dr. Peatman is very compassionate, caring and personable. I highly recommend Dr. Peatman and his helpful staff.
I have been going to Dr Peatman for a number of years now. I am completely satisfied with his interaction with me being I'm of a different nationality. He listens to me, has compassion, answers my questions, shows me and explains to me in layman's language so I may have an understanding. Most of all he is always on time, and when I say to him "your on time", his reply is "I respect your time" looking at me with a smile. That always surprises me because most doctors look at me in a not too good way after saying that, and provide care the same way.
Dr. Peatman is professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. I recommend him.
Dr. Peatman applies his long years of orthopedic and sports recreation experience to your exam. Personal and friendly, he listens to you. The hip replacement he gave me worked out so well, I can snowboard again!
Dr. Peatman operated on my hip and I have recovered beautifully. He explains things clearly and is very thorough in his follow-up care. I highly recommend him and the staff at Golden Gate Orthopedics.
Doctor Thomas Peatman has been my physician for a few years now. He is a very pleasant, kind compassionate doctor. I am very pleased with the care in which he has rendered thus far. Continuous care with him has allowed me to move forward in being fully rehabilitated. I am a stickler for customer service and I will highly recommend this physician.
I really like Doctor Petman, he is very caring, very nice.
Excellent listings And Professional Services The Doctor who Really Cares About pations
I highly recommend Dr Peatman. He operated on my hip several years ago and I recovered beautifully. He is also taking care of my knee so as to avoid an operation. ****
Notably the very best orthopedic physicians available. My experience has been one of understanding and compassion and keeping me comfortable enough to enjoy the activities that I love. I cannot speak highly enough of the office environment or the doctors I’ve seen.
I had back and hip issues for several after a bad fall "attempting" to play pickleball. I went to a plethora of doctors and all were either dismissive or KNEW they could fix me right up, but when their approach didn't work, they treated me as if I was wasting their time. I slept in a recliner for 8 months. At that point a friend recommended Dr. Hou. I sat in his office for a bit. He walked in, asked me a few questions and said I needed an epidural asap! Three days later he did it. Back responded extremely well, but my hips were still a mess. So Dr. Hou referred me to Dr. Peatman. He asked if I wanted shots in my hips "today" or wanted to come back. Today worked fine for me! He gave me two shots, one in each hip and I walked out in the hallway and burst into tears. It was the first time in 3 years I had been pain-free. I have returned as needed to relieve hip pain. In recent months I developed a persistent pain below my knee on the side of my leg that radiated up behind my knee and down to my foot. I saw Dr. Peatman, not knowing if this was something he could address or not. He immediately zeroed in on the angry muscle. Said it was up to me if I wanted to try a shot because it might not work. At that point, I couldn't step up on a curb with my right foot and had to have assistance to sit down or get up. I wanted to try the shot. AMAZING results. I'm now completely mobile. Dr. Peatman is a very caring, hands-on doctor. He doesn't stay stuck to his keyboard, he touches his patients to determine how he can help them. He will also touch your heart because he is gentle and kind. He and Dr. Hou have eliminated so much pain from my life. They have given me my life back!
If you are looking for a doctor who is compassionate and takes the time to hear you, I highly recommend Dr Peatman. He treats you like a whole person, not a body part. He carefully explains all options and makes sure that he understands your issues.
Great knee doctor. Easy to converse with, and he is very good at telling me his thought about my condition.
Dr. Peatman replaced both of my hips. I know that I am in good hands. He is kind and listens to what you have to say. He discusses the treatment plan with you and he is sent from heaven to treat hurting people.
I can't say enough how impressed I am with Dr. Peatman and Webster Orthopedics - I had a nagging knee injury and when i finally called I was given a prompt appointment, had x-rays taken and then set up for a same day MRI with a follow up appointment to review results in a week. Definitely highly recommend Dr. Peatman and Webster Orthpedics
I wish I could give Dr Peatman and his staff 6 stars. I've had an ongoing difficult issue with my hip and knee and have been to a lot of doctors. Dr Peatman was the first doctor that actually listened to me and the first to actually try to figure out what was wrong, rather than giving up or saying there's nothing wrong with me. He always treated me with kindness and compassion and it made all the difference. His PA Brian, the imaging staff, and the front desk staff are all so kind and friendly as well. My only complaint is that it can be a long wait to speak to someone and can be difficult to get someone to call you back about issues, but they are such a busy office that it makes sense.
The second I walked into the door of Webster Orthopedic I was welcome with great customer service and attention. They made it easy in completing their application for new patients. I didn't know the application was so long. My reservation with first time visit is filling out a medical and health life history. The two beautiful girls at the front desk ( one name Samantha ) were helpful in moving me along so not to hold up the doctor. My progression from the front lobby to have x-rays and then to meet with the doctor was brief. Consulting with the doctor about my condition were analyze and near perfect. I only say "near perfect" because I have question I didn't think of asking the doctor until I walked out the door. I want to thank the other receptionist at the front desk; my apologies for not getting your name. I certainly want to thank Dr Thomas Peatman for seeing me, reviewing my x-rays and my physical self. It was Dr Peatman clarity and assessment that ease a critical wondering about my diagnostic.
I had any choice for a surgeon and did my homework And chose Dr Peatman on reading his bio . The only thing o did not like was his anesthesiologist I think he should have discussed my options and he did zero follow up at the hospital and I requested to see him And never showed . As for office she afford who were nice and to he zoom calls with his assistant. All good . Big shout out to Sutter Hospital they were great . M Dias
I had a knee replacement and 6 months later a hip replacement— both by Dr. Peatman. The preparation for surgery and the follow up rehab were both excellent. All the staff and the assistants are professional and effective and Dr Peatman is the best.
Thank you Dr. Peatman for finding the problem and giving us the solutions. We're definitely glad we came to you for a 2nd opinion. We avoided unnecessary surgery.
Dr. Peatman was very kind and knowledgeable. I have been having trouble with my left hip for about seven years.. not to the severity that it is now. I had relief with the cortisone shot right away. Yesterday I went zooming around the island in my kitchen and I overdid it. I had to take it easy the rest of the day. I don’t hurt today so I learned my lesson to walk moderately. Dr. Peatman reassured me that if I lose some weight everything will be ok and I can have hip replacement surgery.
Outstanding! Dr. Peatman always makes you feel like you are his only patient. He takes time with you and is always worried about how you feel and how he can help. He is the best!
First appointment. He has helped some of my friends. I liked him.
Dr peatman is the best, did my hip replacement last year omg what a difference, I just had my keen replacement still rehabbing but none of the old pain just the surgery pain it's only been 7/8 weeks but coming along great..I highly recommend dr peatman he is caring and he will help you get back on your feet....
I received outstanding service from Dr peatman and his staff very clean facility overall it was a very good visit thanks again Dr peatman
I always have a Good experience when visiting Dr Peatman....his medical advise is beneficial and he appears to care a lot for his patients
I found Dr. Peatman, MD to be confident, knowledgeable, personable and forthright. His manner is friendly and he is easy to talk to.
I had a very good experience at Webster Orthopedics Dr Peatman was very kind and thorough. I would recommend them without hesitation.
I had a very positive experience. The waiting room was set to provide appropriate social distancing and I was seen promptly. Dr Peatman has very good “bedside “ manners and is very thorough. He was not in a rush to recommend surgery but offered an alternate less invasive procedure to see how I respond. I’m very pleased with this initial consultation.
Explained everything completely and was upfront about potential obstacles.
DR Peatman is out standing DR with a care n compassion for the his patients I am so Happy having as my Doctor. 🙏💖😊🤩🤗👍
My hip replacement surgery was a success and I’m happy to get back to an active life. The follow-up care has been great. Thank you Dr. Peatman!
He is professional, knowledgeable and kind. Dr Peatman provided several treatment options and asked what I was comfortable with. I know I can get a quick response when I call for advice or an appointment.
An outstanding orthopedic surgeon, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dr. Thomas Peatman. He has replaced both of my hip joints with no problems, relatively little time to recover, and minimal pain after the surgery. His “soft skills” as in his bedside manner, could however be improved. For my own peace of mind, I needed to see him while in my hospital bed after the surgery, but he was unable or unwilling to visit me...thus only 4 stars.
Dr. Peatman performed a total left knee replacement and four months later a right total knee replacement. Both successful surgeries. Amazing work performed by a great surgeon.
From the moment I checked in for my appoint l was treated with the upmost safety and kindness. The receptioninst was patient, caring and very respectful. The stanoghgfer who performed my xrays was patient and kind also. I noticed how the stranogher spoke to the patient leaving his exmaine prior to my examine. I over heard how he spoke to the patient leaving, I said to myself, wow everybody here seems so kind. They santize the room after each vist. Of course that helped ease my anxiety. Then l met Dr Peatman. One of the first things he said was, I'm going to make you feel better. He showed genuine corncern about my well being. He explained the diagnois and explained the best options for treatment. I cant express how blessed I am to have him as my doctor. He follows up with you to check on your progress. I would recommend anyone that has a need for an orthopedic to go see Dr. Peatman. He's the best!!!
My visit with Webster orthopedic had a positive outcome. Dr. Peatman took xrays we talked about my issue and he suggested a shot, which I don’t like. He said I promise it won’t hurt. And it did not. My knee is better today
I’ve had outstanding care from Dr. Peatman and his team.
I have been pleased with the treatment received from Dr. Peatman M.D. Gr8 work and awesome bedside manner. The staff is also pleasant& helpful👍🏾
After a torn left labrum in my hip Dr Peatman performed surgery, and I’ve not experienced any problems since. Plus, there’s little to no visible scarring. He asked me about 20 times if I ‘really want to do this...’ so I was 100% positive about my decision, without ever leading me in one direction, or another. He’s very upfront and helpful as well.
I want to thank Dr T Peatman, and the Webster Orthopedics,for helping me with a great hip replacement, and very professional , caring and I would recommend people to see Dr Peatman
This was the first time I've ever had a cortisone shot where I didn't feel it being given. Dr Peatman was interested in my knee issues, and made recommendations on how I could ease pain and increase leg strength by doing an exercise in various positions.
Cortisone shot in my right knee yesterday was painless and effective immediately. Kneecap area was getting worse over the last few months and Dr Peatman put the shot in exactly where it needed to go. He has been treating my shoulders, knees,a r. hip for almost 3 years... excellent care to this 30 year fire department veteran!
Excellent, Dr Pearman is a very concerned Doctor by asking questions in related to The patient pain. He have been my doctor for over twenty years and I have bever had one Complaint neither have I heard of one from Some of my friends that visit him
Front office personnel was efficient and courteous. Dr. Peatman is a talented and knowledgeable specialist with a good personality
Dr. Peatman was recommended to me by my son who is an RN. I was very pleased on how promptly his office accommodated my needs, which they fitted me in the same week, via Zoom. I was very surprised how quickly my MRI took place, Dr. Peatman has a great bedside manner and is very attentive. In ust 2 weeks I am pain free!! Thank you Dr. Peatman!
I have been going to Webster Orthopaedics since1996, and every Dr I have seen there has been top notch. I just got referred to Dr Peatman for my knee replacement surgery, and he was very informative, and answered all my questions.
I am grateful to have had Dr. Peatman for my knee surgery. I changed my insurance carrier of 30 years to get Dr. Peatman as the surgeon for my knee replacement. Wasn't easy or quick, but it was definitely worth it.
Dr. Peatman is an excellent Orthopedic Surgeon-my surgeries have been super successful. In 2013 I had my right hip replaced and in 2015 my left hip was replaced. The recovery for both surgeries was short and way above expectations. Dr. Peatman and his staff provide excellent care. In 2018 Dr. Peatman replaced my right knee-again the recovery was shorter than expected and my knee is back to normal. I recommend Dr. Peatman to all my friends that are considering hip or knee replacements. He is the BEST!
Dr. Peatman is very direct, confident and listens. You’re in good hands with him!
I'm seeing Dr. Peetman for mild to severe osteoarthritis on both knees. I have this condition for more than 15 years and started seeing him more than a year ago for secondary opinion for knee replacement because my insurance stopped covering a treatment and i ended up staying with him. I found him very personable and like his communication style (taking time and at the right pace), and his good clinical advice/options for my case. He also has experience in operating with precision robotic system for knee surgery at the San Ramon Regional Hospital.
Pleasant environment, courteous, professional staff and top notch attentive medical care.
Dr. Peatman is a very thoughtful and intelligent orthopedic surgeon. My interactions with him have been very informative. He also went the extra mile to personally make calls to determine coverage etc., even as I sat in his office. Some frustrating nonsense and it was not resolved right then, but at least he tried, which is more than many physicians seem willing to do these days. He is methodical in his approach to rule out and identify the problem. I hope 🤞 to resolve my ongoing issue with his help, it’s critical to my being able to stay active.
I appreciate the thoughtful approach to establishing a plan of care. He takes the time to weigh in on the different options available.
Dr peatman is a very talented surgeon and I would highly recommend him for any orthopedic procedure.
I have been seeing Dr Peatmen since 2014 for a hip replacement and he has also taken care of my other hip and replaced my left knee. He is a great and caring doctor. I have recommended to my family and friends and they all say the samething about him and his staff. I would fly around the world to have him operate on me or my family.
Dr. Peatman is one of the most knowledgeable medical professionals in the Bay Area. He is kind, caring, and works with a patient to develop the best possible plan for care taking into consideration all available options. I would not hesitate to recomend Dr. Peatman to anyone who is in need of knee and/or hip care and surgery. I would give more STARS but I only have 5. My outcome has been great, and I look forward to continuing to work with him to improve on my knee replacement.
Dr. Peatman most recently repaired my knee by performing a microfracture surgery. I wasn't able to walk without crutches for about three months prior to the surgery. It is easy to take things for granted but I don't take having access to such a high caliber surgeon who cares about his patients and the community. I am grateful!
From the friendly, helpful check in staff, to Dr Peatman’s comforting and competent style, and his assistant’s kindness and help...I had a great experience. I felt heard, seen and helped with my problem. I cannot always say that about medical professionals so they made a big impression on me!
Professional and friendly experience, with clear explanations and giving choices with doctor. Technician not very friendly, but assistant very pleasant.
DR. Peatman did a superb job on both of my right and left hip replacements. I was able to walk right after my surgery and never had to use a walker, crutches or cane. I can’t be anymore happier with my hip replacements results.
Excellent and caring surgeon. Gentle bedside manner. Replaced my hip - good as new
Excellent Excellent Excellent. The Doctor is very professional, He displays His experience, knowledge, and empathy. * And He has a great sense of caring for My welfare. "AT - A - BOY " ! !

I appreciate The time Dr. Pitman spent with me and providing options for knee care
Dear Dr Peatman, Thank you for providing your medical expertise in evaluating me. For a little more than a decade I have been living my life based on incorrect diagnoses of my joints and bones. I am so grateful that you took my concerns seriously and have agreed to follow up with me in six months.
Dr. Peatman gave me excellent care. He is always available and has a wonderful staff!
Dr. Peatman is one of the most trust worthy and also one of the kindest orthopedic doctor that I know. Thank you for turning the situation into a very pleasant experience.
Excellent preparation before and after my knee replacement. Did 2 moths daily exercises prep physical and mental through a special app . Doctor recommended this.After replacement excellent personal after care .good office coordinating . Pleasant doctor. Did an amazing job . Use of new tools. Highly recommend him . I was playing golf after 6 weeks.
I was concerned about the length of my hospital stay. I call Dr Peatman’s office to make sure I wouldn’t be forced to leave the hospital within 24 hours. I was awaiting a return call from Dr Peatman’s staff with an answer and Dr Peatman called and explained the procedure and hospital stay. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated that call and how comfortable it made me feel. Thank you Dr Peatman!
The kind and friendly staff were an extension of the competent professionalism exhibited by Dr. Peatman.
It has a wonderful experience working with Dr. Peatman. He genuinely shows concern for his patients. He’s the best!
Dr. Peatman was very professional. I felt very taken care of. In my case, he did not recommend surgery yet. Which surprised me as I was expecting that all ortho doctors would advocate that path.
Dr Peatman did my knee replacement surgery 6 years ago and it was perfect. So I consulted with him again because of pain in that knee that worried me. He took the time to ask questions, do an exam and read past and present xrays and was able to quickly let me know that the replacement knee was fine... but it was reacting to other issues. He was warm and interested and explained everything well
Always a pleasure working with Dr. Peatman of Webster Orthopedics. A superb Orthopod, he has operated on both my hips and he checks my arthritic knee regularly. He also wears very jazzy socks.
When l pick Dr Peatman from a list of Drs I didn't know if he was able to help. When l went for a consultation he said lm able to help you and he did. I had to complete knee replacement seven month apart. I hear all kind of experiance people had and my was diferent. Dr peatman is careing and has an excelent bed maner. To any one thats reading this I recmend him greatly just follow his dlrections. Thank you Dr Peatman l greatly appreciated you. ♥️🙏🙏🙏
Walking around on my new Total Hip Joint and grateful for Dr. Peatman's expertise! Have been to both his Oakland and San Ramon office and was immediately greeted by his courteous and engaging front desk. His back office staff is both kind and professional. Dr. Peatman explained everything clearly and compassionately while answering all my questions thoroughly. His P.A. Brian has a calming way that made my pre-operative injection painless. Walking straight and thankful for Dr. Peatman's Team!
I have been very fortunate over the last twenty years to have been treated by a family doctor who is connected to a network of fantastic specialists. This is the reason I travel almost 200 miles to be treated by Dr. Peatman. The Webster Orthopedic Group is a class act. Every person I have dealt with has been friendly, polite and professional. Calls are answered or returned promptly, waiting room time for appointments is almost non-existent, Dr. Peatman and his staff are efficient and respectful of my time. Often, they get me in early and out quickly due to my long drive. All my crazy requests are handled efficiently with 5 star customer service. I have never been made to feel I'm asking for too much or wasting the staffs time. Dr. Peatman is a confident but not cocky surgeon who always makes me feel he has my best interests at heart. He takes time to answer my questions and explain treatments and procedures so I fully understand. He never appears to be in a hurry. During my surgeries, I have noticed the operating room support staff seem to enjoy working with Dr. Peatman. I even had one nurse tell me he is the best surgeon she had worked with. I can't think of a better endorsement.
Dr. Peatman made me very comfortable, he knew what was wrong with my knee from 1 exam. Thx Dr. Peatman
Dr. Peatman and his staff are true professionals. Dr Peatman explained all the options and the best plan for treatment. I am pleased. Thankfully, Cheryl Edwards
Dr peatman is a very good excellent knee doctor
I have very good doctor. I had my left hip done and I have not had any trouble with it. I'm getting my right hip done soon after the holidays. I'll be able to run soon. Thank God you couldn't have a nicer doctor then Dr. Pearman. Bless you sir.
When you find that one doctor who puts you first, explains to your understanding- and is willing to help. That’s pure gold! That’s one amazing doctor! Thank you Dr. Peatman ! Don’t waste your time going to anyone else!
Dr. Peatman is both friendly and professional. He listens to my questions and concerns, he treats me with respect and courtesy, he answers all my questions and suggests options for dealing with different issues, (last but not least) he did an excellent job replacing my hips. Both surgeries went really well, with minimal recovery time needed. I'm really pleased with all of his service.
Thank you very much for your time and expertise. Your a outstanding Doctor as are a person. Always felt well taken care of from beginning to the end of the journey that we took. Bless you and your staff. Hopefully I never have go through it again. But If I have to You and your team will be the first I call. Many blessings to you and yours!
Dr. Peatman is the answer to my prayers!! He listens to you as a person not just a patient!! His bedside manner is impeccable!! I still have a long way to go but at least now I see the light at the end of the tunnel and I have to say it is all thanks to Dr. Peatman!!
I went to Dr. Peatman for pain in right hip. He was recommended to me by a number of physicians; Neighbor who had two hip replacements; and my husband who had a full knee replacement. He is personable and a good listener. He recommended treatment plan that didn’t require surgery.
Dr. Peatman is a pleasure to work with. He his very qualified and super professional AND he is very caring. I very much recommend Dr. Peatman.
I already posted experiences with my knee replacement at my appointment with you yesterday but again received this link, gave you your five star rating, and explained what was still going on with problems with my knee. I hope you received my answers. Thank you, Rita Connors
Dr Peatman is very good.
A clear expert. Thorough yet efficient with my time. Quick diagnoses and gave me options on the possible treatment.
We loved the care from Dr. Peatman!
I can honestly say that Dr. Peatman is one of the most knowledgeable and talented orthopedic surgeons in the Bay Area. My husband and I first met him when he gave a lecture on osteoarthritis and joint replacement at Alta Bates in Berkeley. We asked questions and he answered clearly and thoroughly. We really liked his approach to joint replacement surgery so we made an appointment to see him at his office. His manner is kind and caring. He has a great bedside manner (always positive!) and a funny sense of humor. I felt very comfortable going forward with my knee replacement surgery. His support staff, especially his PA, Brian Costello, are just as caring as Dr. Peatman. I had previously worked with two orthopedic surgeons in the East Bay over the course of 12 years but never felt 100% comfortable scheduling my surgery as I did with Dr. Peatman and the staff at Webster Orthopedics. He was honest about possible outcomes after my surgery and laid out a careful plan of rehabilitation and therapy. I felt like I had a medical partner helping me to be the best person I could be. Thanks Dr. Peatman!!!
Friendly staff.
Pleased to have successfully addressed the pain in my knee with a steroid injection from Dr. Peatman--at least for now. Grateful I could have an appointment with him even on a super busy day at his practice! Dr. Peatman and Brian, his PA, explained clearly what was likely going on with my knee(s) based on the xrays taken that morning at their office, and told me the options we could try. Both were friendly, easy to talk with, and professional. If I have further issues with the torn meniscus, bone spurs, or arthritis, I'll continue my care treatment with Dr. Peatman and Brian--without hesitation.
Dr. Peatman has operated on both of my hips. He had to do a revision on my left hip that another doctor did a poor job on it and the prosthetic hip that broke inside of me after only 2 years after it was installed. He helped me tremendously. He has a great bedside manor and don't quite attitude about getting you out of pain. I would fly around the world to have him take care of me and my family. His staff is tremendous. Starting with Brittney they will do whatever it takes to take care of you. I highly recommend Dr Peatman and his staff.
I'm thrilled with the outcome of my total hip replacement and am so grateful I found Dr. Thomas Peatman. He is exactly what a doctor should be: caring, compassionate, optimistic, and incredibly talented as a surgeon. He is exactly what you want when relying on an expert to help you walk again! He was available to answer my questions and gave me support when I needed it, including calling me on his day off to check on me. I feel he's a true healer. I recommend him highly, and I wish all doctors were like him. Eight months after my surgery I took a trip to Costa Rica, where I went zip lining, inner tubing on a pretty rough river, sailing and snorkeling, horseback riding, and to top it off went hiking in a cloud forest where I hiked eight miles one day (and climbed the equivalent of 90 flights of stairs according to my app). I am truly back in action. The staff at Webster Orthopedics is also a joy to work with. The environment at the two clinics I visited is one of teamwork and care, and you can tell the staff is happy to be there. In addition, the physical therapy care I received was exemplary.
I had a worker injury and anyone who had to deal with worker comp knows it is not easy. My first surgeon told me he doesn't like worker's comp cases because it was too difficult. I was referred to Dr. Peatman and he told me he would do what it takes to get my surgery done and with the help of his evaluation, I had my surgery completed within 6 months. After my surgery his office was in constant contract checking on my recovery. I had questions and when I called, Dr. Peatman answered them himself. I highly recommend Dr. Peatman not only for his skill as as surgeon but his concerns for his patients and his professional staff.
I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Peatman. Three years ago I had my right hip replaced and the surgery was very successful. The home care rehab came over 2 times and then dismissed me because the surgery was so successful. Off the pain meds in 2 weeks, back at work at my desk in 2 weeks. The follow-up visits were just a basic check-in. Dr. Peatman suggested that I wait three months before I start playing golf-I waited and three years later I am pain-free. Eighteen months ago I had my left hip replaced by Dr. Peatman. This time it was even better-no rehab was required as I was walking doing so well. Golf again in six weeks. I found Dr. Peatman's bed-side manner excellent and would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Peatman replaced both of my hips. I know that I am in good hands. He is kind and listens to what you have to say. He discusses the treatment plan with you and he is sent from heaven to treat hurting people.
Great knee doctor. Easy to converse with, and he is very good at telling me his thought about my condition.
I wish I could give Dr Peatman and his staff 6 stars. He always treated me with kindness and compassion and it made all the difference. His PA Brian, the imaging staff, and the front desk staff are all so kind and friendly as well.
