Horrible doctor! He doesn't answer questions, he's rude and half the time I think he doesn't know who he is even seeing. He walked in on one of my post ops looked at me with a confused expression looked at his clipboard back at me and said " yeah you're all good see you in 2 weeks" and left the room that was the entire appointment.. avoid this joke of a doctor.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Pearson and his staff! I was visiting from Dallas, TX and, while hiking at Nojoqui Falls, slipped and fell and snapped my ankle. I knew I needed an orthopedic surgeon, so skipped the whole paramedic/ER scene and cold-called Dr. Pearson. They fit me into their busy schedule, met me at my car with a wheelchair, and had me all fixed up with a surgical boot in no time flat, even though everyone had to stay after closing to get me done. THANK YOU!!!

After years of painful and diminishing ankle cartilage, I could take it no more and the Veteran's Administration recommended Dr. Pearson to take a look and see if he could help. He completed a thorough examination including x-rays and an MRI. Together we agreed that an ankle replacement with the STAR SYSTEM was the best option. He went over in detail what to expect as far as pain and recovery.
We agreed on a date to have the surgery and went ahead with preparations to get it done. The surgery we had agreed to do early October, which was 4 months away, was rescheduled without my knowledge

After a complete tear of the posterior tibial tendon, I needed complicated ankle and foot surgery to transplant another tendon in order to be able to continue to walk. Fortunately, Dr. Tacconelli, my favorite orthopedist, sent me to Dr. Pearson.
This operation is a fairly big deal, with a long convalescence that requires a lot of patience, but I am pleased to report that the outcome is an ankle that is fully functional and pain-free, with very little scarring.
I have great respect for Dr. Pearson's understanding of foot and ankle mechanics, and would recommend him to anyone needing this

Dr. Pearson's staff are very efficient and questions promptly answered. Dr. Pearson came highly recommended by another orthopedist in the area and I am so glad he did. I now have an artificaial ankle and am able to walk without pain for the first time in almost a year. As I live in northern San Luis Obispo county his satalite office in Santa Maria was convenient. Thank you Dr. Pearson, Brian, and all his staff.

What a terrible experience....I went to Dr. Pearson to have a bunion removed....I now have a completely deformed foot, a large lump on the top of my foot which prevents me from wearing almost any shoe, and I have had three serious infections at the incision site. DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR......I am now scheduled with another foot surgeon to have more painful surgery. I have had three opinions from three Doctors....they are all shocked when they see my foot. Something is wrong with this man. Run, or hop away from this Doctor!!!!

A year ago Dr. Pearson performed bunion surgery on one of my feet.
In retrospect I should have known not to proceed with him as a surgeon
because in the initial consultation he never examined my foot and he said
he couldn't tell me which procedure he would use. Nonetheless, I foolishly
went ahead with the surgery. After suffering pain, spending weeks in bed, and
shelling out thousands of dollars for the procedure, I am now looking at a mangled
foot. Not only is the bunion still there, but my large toe is slanting so much in the direction of my other toes that it actually goes under the

I went in to Dr. Pearson via a referral from my primary care doc and I was very disappointed. Dr. Pearson is a foot specialist and I have bump on the top of my foot. I even brought in Xerox copies of my x-rays to show that it's not a bone bump so what is it? Dr. Pearson felt around and said that since it's not really painful that I should, get this, 1) loosen my shoelaces or 2) put a cushion on the top of my foot.
He also offered the option of sending me in for an MRI but told me that in all likelihood he'd end up surgically shaving off some of the bone in the area.
Seriously
