The Practice

Huisartsenpraktijk Haarlemmerpoort is a general practice located at van Limburg Stirumstraat 20A, in the Staatsliedenbuurt (Westerpark), just behind the Haarlemmerweg. It is a small-scale practice, consisting of two regular General Practitioners (GP) and an Acting General Practitioner.

We stand for personal and high-quality care and believe low-threshold contact with our patients is very important. You may contact us for questions about your health, advice on a particular topic or for a listening ear. As a doctor practice, we try to find the best solution for your problem or complaint together with you, the patient. We like to think together with you, whereby the patient retains control and responsibility for his or her own health. We practice regular medicine, so no alternative medicine.

One female and one male doctor are currently working in our practice. As a patient, you will automatically fall under the care of all doctors, but you may of course have a preference for one of them.

When you call us, you can indicate with which doctor you wish to make an appointment. However, it can of course occur, for example in an emergency situation, that you are assigned by the assistant at the consultation hour to the available doctor at that time.

We find a good relationship of trust with our patients very important and would like to know more about the patient's background so when you first visit our practice, we therefore start with an introductory meeting. The practice is also used for training purposes and we are affiliated with the VUmc. This means that a general practitioner in training is regularly present and will work under the supervision of one of the two general practitioners. We believe that this is important, because our young colleagues also have to learn the profession of GP, like we have done in the past.
