Patient Reviews
Nov 22, 2019
Dr. Posthuma is very personable, friendly and through. He makes time to be with his patients, and asks lots of questions to get to the bottom of the problem. He will go through your medication list and make sure everything that you are taking is ok and the proper dosage. He will schedule tests and a follow up if needed. I have been seeing him for years and have all of the trust in the world in him.
