Peter L Grossman, MD

I referred a friend to Dr. Reddy — after my first appointment — before I realized it would take 2 – 3 appointments to get anywhere with her. Anyhoo — friend went once, had tests taken, went again. Dr. Reddy wrote a prescription for something innocuous — Reddy won’t authorize a refill without coming in AGAIN (!)
Sounds like two other doctors have left this practice since Grossman left. Guess the only left is (lame) Reddy.

Dr. Grossman was a very involved Dr and did a great job of asking good questions and really trying to figure out what the underlying issue was.
Unfortunately, I believe he has retired.

Overall, Dr. Grossman is a very nice person and spends time talking to you but I was not happy with his medical management.

I was recommended to him by a family member when I moved out to the area. I went in very encouraged from what I heard from my family, but was quickly disappointed. He is a nice man and friendly, too, however he was intimidated by some of the issues I was experiencing. He is very old-​school, with mostly middle-​aged and older patients (from what I gathered from my family that saw him and his waiting room when I was there) and seemed uncomfortable with issues he didn’t see frequently. He quickly sent me off to every kind of specialist. He did nothing to help my pain, and in the initial visit when I told him about my problem, the first thing he told me was «if you are looking for someone to prescribe you painkillers, get another doctor» as if since I’m in my young twenties, I’m just looking for a high. I was insulted. I want something for my pain, true, but only until the original issue at hand was fixed. I wanted healing not drugs. The judgmental attitude was inappropriate. I could have chosen the specialists myself. His office was an unnecessary stop.

I have found Dr. Grossman to be a great doctor. Would recommend him highly.

Dr. Grossman is old school. He takes the time to talk to you, to get to know your patient history as well as who you are and what you do. It’s been a while since I’ve talked to such a friendly and personable physician. (Both my parents and most of their friends happen to be physicians.) Just awesome.

About a year ago, my primary care physician didn’t have an open appointment, so I asked to see one his associates — which turned out to be Dr. Grossman. I was very pleasantly surprised by his willingness to listen to me, discuss treatment options, and his ability to provide readily understandable answers to my many questions. During a recent stay at Mills Peninsula hospital, he stopped by every day to check on my condition and keep me informed of my progress and answer my questions. Dr. Grossman is a brilliant physician and a kind, gentle person that I would entrust the health of any member of my family to.

I went in for a checkup and also just to have a doctor with my name on file in case an emergency ever comes up. My experience with Dr. Grossman was just OK. Parking in the area is decent, staff was nice, and the waiting room was fine, so I can’t dock for that.
Dr. Grossman was open to listening to my concerns, but as soon as I was done explaining myself he simply told me to go to a specialist rather than doing an initial examination or providing any advice on what I could do in the mean time. I found this a little frustrating, I would have liked if he could have at least «dug» a little bit into what I was saying instead of saying…“well im not a _​_​_​_​specialist, but there’s a great one down the hall”. I expect my PCP to at least provide some input to my concerns, even if it’s not his area of expertise (after all a PCP should know a little bit about everything right?)
Edit: i forgot to mention that dr. grossman has an uncanny resemblance to larry david (Seinfeld, Curb your enthusiasm). i found this a little entertaining, but no stars added for that

Wow. I saw Dr. Grossman for a physical (it’s been a while). He was wonderful. You walk in… fill out your paperwork and before you fill it out. you are in to see the nurse who does the preliminary stuff… (height/​weight. ugh!)
Then you go into the office and before you can continue filling out the forms (they are literally 3 pages of check off stuff. nothing big.) Dr. Grossman is with you. He’s an older fatherly type (but in a handsome way…) and he actually talks to you. Gets your history and concerns by asking you your story. I haven’t been to a doctor that took this much time with me in years. It was refreshing — I wasn’t a number. He actually asked me if I had any questions or if there was anything I wanted to ask him… I mean seriously… usually they are rushing you out the door. There are all of those articles in magazines about getting your primary care doc to spend more time with you… nope… you don’t need it from him… and he also came highly recommended by a friend that’s a hospital physician… I said… who would you go to… and he said… «Dr. Grossman» so I feel very comfortable with his clinical aptitude.
If I could give him 6 stars I would… hey… can I take a star away from Anderson Window company and give them to Dr. Grossman? hee hee

I hadn’t been to see a real doctor for a physical in about twenty years, and I thought it would be good just to get a general checkup. My last experience with a doctor (dermatologist) was less than excellent, so understandably, I was a bit leery since this was another referral.
I had complained quite a bit, so my girlfriend asked her doctor buddies to refer someone with a good bedside manner.
Dr. Grossman was great. He came recommended as «someone I would send a family member to.» I totally agree. Though I was completely healthy — which he confirmed, saying my blood pressure was that of a childs, I was impressed with his sense of calm and patience.
He actually took the time to sit and talk to me and find out more about me than just who was my health insurance provider. He was not rushed and did not treat me like a cow he was trying to herd through the place like so many other practitioners. I actually think he cares about his patients, and not just about moving them through so he can get a fast buck! He answered all of my questions, and gave me thoughtful solutiuons. I actually think he cares — this is good considering he is a care provider.
The front desk staff was courteous, and the waiting room had comfortable chairs with plenty to read while waiting. I was not waiting long either — only a few minutes after I had filled out my papers, and then only a few minutes more while in the examination room. One overly thick lady sitting next to me was complaining that it was too warm in there, but I found it nice since it was so cold and windy outside.
Parking was easy too — plenty of cheap meters and local lots.
If you want to be treated like a human, go see Dr. Peter Grossman.
