I don't like to bother the doctor. And I'm pretty nervous when I go. But he's always a delight and kind. Thanks for all your help.

He has been my doctor for many years now and that's why I keep coming back because he's a great doctor.

I think He did jump to conclusions prematurely when he said I would probably be on Eliquis for the rest of my life. That is his opinion and it might be true but I am hoping my emergency room doctor is correct in that my clot will clear and I will only be on Eliquis a short time. Who wants to be on this medicine for life?

This was a wellness exam. no one checked his blood pressure, temperature. Dr., no check reflexes or things like that. he looked at his ear because I requested it. He is a late-stage Alzheimer's patient. I brought him in due to being refused to renew his prescription because he had not had a Wellness exam, which was 3 weeks before his birthday. This was not Ritsima; he was on vacation. I care for him at home. A large part of the Trinity staff I have come in contact with, being his caretaker, treats him as a dead man walking. It is very sad. I will start looking for a new doctor, it was evident to me. We are not wanted as patients with Trinity Health. After all the years we've done business with you, now he's very ill, and when we need medical help more than ever, we get more attitude from the staff in Jenison than we get compassion or help. So, outside us both getting a flu shot, the total time the doctor spent with him was less than 10 min. So why was it so important we had this wellness exam? I was asked if there was anything else, I had already shut down wanting to refrain from saying things and being up set. So I just said no.

Dr. Reitsma is 100% Great at his job! As is the Jenison staff. I would have appreciated more than the 15 mins he was limited to that day by the system as I was not able to directly address my prescription refill needs at that time. I have now addressed these questions via the MyChart

Dr. Ritsema was 45 min late after the nurse had left the room. I felt that he was in a hurry but he did take the time to answer my questions and give me a thorough physical.

Where to start. Dr. Peter Ritsema has been practicing excellence in heath care for our family since 1991. In our humble opinion, heath care practice should be modeled after this Physician. From physicals to routine heath care to specialized needs, even heart breaking loss of a family member. Always caring, compassionate, professional and thorough.
