Dr. Joseph P Peterman

“Dr. Joe” Peterman was the second of six children and grew up in Dallas attending St. Rita and Jesuit College Prep School. After an undergraduate education at Baylor University he returned to Dallas to earn his medical degree at UT Southwestern.  He interned at the Children’s Hospital of Oklahoma in OKC and completed a residency in pediatrics back in Dallas at Children’s Medical Center.

In December 2017 they became grandparents (Woo-Hoo!!). He served as the President of the Children’s Medical Staff in 2001 and taught rotating medical students in his office for a number of years. Dr. Joe is a believer and, with his wife and family, regularly practices his faith.
