Dr. Jelsma’s Office Philosophy: Personal Care

Dr. Jelsma feels that when a patient makes an appointment to see a doctor, they expect to see a person who graduated from an accredited medical school. However, with the advent of managed care, many medical practices now delegate patient care to physician extenders such as nurse practitioners and physician’s assistants. While these professionals play an important role in patient care, they are not a replacement for the physician. For example, what presents as shoulder pain from common tendinitis could be actually be caused by a more serious problem. Medical diagnosis and treatment is complicated, and we want our patients to receive the finest care possible. At this office, when a patient makes an appointment to see the doctor, they will meet Dr. Jelsma. He sees every patient personally.

Dr. Jelsma chose to be a sole practitioner because he believes it improves patient care. Seeing the same doctor every time helps to increase patient trust, improves understanding of the medical history, and reduces medical error. Having a deeper understanding of the patient helps make each treatment program unique to that individual.

Patients who elect to undergo surgery will know that Dr. Jelsma will do the entire procedure. In contrast, at teaching hospitals, senior doctors may only supervise cases, allowing residents learning surgery to do the procedures. Likewise, many surgeons often perform only the complicated parts of a surgery themselves, leaving wound closure or simpler procedures to the physician’s assistant. Dr. Jelsma does not like to take this risk. He feels his expertise doing the entire procedure gives his patients the best chance of a successful surgical outcome.

Recovering from surgery can be a difficult process. Patients may encounter unexpected problems and need help at night or after hours. Dr. Jelsma is always available to his patients through his office paging system. The only time a patient might speak to a different physician is if he is out of town.
