About Jeffrey T Postma
About the Provider
Medicine is the only thing I have ever wanted to do. I love caring for patients and fixing problems.
My approach to care centers on active listening. I want to make sure we have a mutual understanding of the problem. My philosophy is, treatment options are like a pyramid. The bottom level is simply keeping a problem under observation. Then, you work your way up toward different treatment options, with surgery at the very top. As much as I enjoy performing surgery — especially hip and knee replacements — my goal is always to help you achieve your health goals with the least amount of medical intervention necessary.
As an orthopedic surgeon, I find great joy in helping people restore their mobility and improve their lives. It's always deeply rewarding to see a patient reach a goal, and to hear their excitement as they tell me about their latest accomplishments.

Highly recommend Dr Postma. We are so lucky to have him in Coloma. Don’t feel the need to go to a bigger town/city-facility. He provides quality care and very personable.
