Peter N Grote, MD

Dr. Grote is a true gem! My whole family saw him when we lived in Seattle, and now that we live in Vancouver, we’re seriously missing him.
He’s warm, patient, thorough, and always made us feel like he had plenty of time to discuss our various issues. He treated us respectfully, even when our views didn’t completely align, and I never felt like he would push a course of treatment on us that we didn’t want. The specialists he referred us to were great as well, from chiropractor to oncologist.
Dr. Grote takes a holistic approach toward health and doesn’t seem over-​eager to prescribe medications, as some doctors do. For example, when my daughter had a mild ear infection that wasn’t bothering her, he recommended that we wait and see and didn’t suggest antibiotics right off. The ear infection was soon gone without having caused my daughter any distress. He is also familiar with herbs and prescribed some to us that were quite helpful.
And to top it off, my preschooler was comfortable with him, which at the time, was really saying something!
Now if only I could find a doctor like him in Vancouver. ..

Dr. Grote sees our entire family for medical care. He takes plenty of time with his patients and sees urgent things the day of if at all possible. We love that he focuses on nutrition and healthy living rather than jumping to medicine first. He is also very respectful of our parenting choices.
