As an internist-endocrinologist, I mainly see patients with disorders of the endocrine system, such as thyroid diseases, diabetes mellitus and pituitary diseases. In addition, I see people for general internal medicine and osteoporosis. In recent years as an internist-endocrinologist, I have gained extensive experience within various hospitals in the Netherlands. I bring this experience into the consulting room to use in my consultations and examinations. I find it important to listen well to my patients, I always try to explain everything as clearly as possible in order to come to a good treatment plan together.
