Practical information

Making an appointment

Making an appointment at Huisartsenpraktijk de Vecht can be done by phone via the assistant. When you call to make an appointment, the assistant will first talk to you. During this conversation, she will assess whether she can give you immediate advice, or whether it would be better to schedule an appointment at the practice, a telephone consultation or a home visit. We have consultation hours on weekdays from 08:00 to 10:30 and from 14:00 to 16:00 at the practice. Home visits are done only when you cannot come to the practice. If a same-day home visit is needed, please call before 10:00 am.
