Doctors in Leiden, Netherlands

I can recommend my doctor, he speaks also englich but not sure he takes new patiens. Dr. Haring,

https://www.huisartsenroodenburg.nl/Default.asp?&HTTPSHASH=# They are taking new patiens!

Huisartsboender.com Dr Boender trained in the uk and so his English is somewhat impeccable.

I can recommend psysical therapy http://fysiosportleiden.nl for this. And ibuprofen.

I can highly recommend https://www.facebook.com/104724729559246 Chiropractie Leiden for these kinds of issues. A thorough check and some massage and adjustments from a chiropractor can help enormously.

I had a similar problem, the tension might be caused by chronic stress...you can try this place http://www.salvadormassageservices.nl/ ( i can recommend it) or try to find a physiotherapist...there are many in Leiden. Good luck!

You can call this number : 0900 - 513 80 39. This is the Huisartsenpost (=emergency line like Helen explained) they will give you an appointement today if it is necessary ! We needed it 2 times for our son.

Dr Lange around the corner is female and good.

Dr Krispijn lammenschansweg (5 mins from Hoogvliet) is very good.

Seamus Ryan a helluva lot of them in Berlin, that's who! Just not used to this country yet ;-)

I know it's not Leiden but Rianne Vos at the Wassenaar Bronovo Gezondgezondheid center is excellent. Never a long wait, and she also doesn't tell you to take paracetamol for everything.

Never had that problem with Dr. Vos. She's great. She listens, refers whenever you ask her to, and if you need a letter for your expat insurance just write it and she signs it. Very accommodating. We've been lucky with her because I've heard the horror stories! I wanted allergy tests to see what I was so allergic to because no otc meds were working and she didn't try to get me to take loratadine, she ordered the test straight away. Good service.

A. M. Van den braken! She's the best doctor I had in a long long time..

My saw bones! Never had a complaint!https://praktijkpluimgras.praktijkinfo.nl/

De Lange too:-) and she speaks english

Dr. Boender@Houtlaan 55A - Gebouw de "Schans", tel: 071-5120266. I've used him since I've stayed in Leiden for years. He consults in both English n Dutch, male doc.

Here's who we go to - both women, both speak English. M.A.M. Wendel en T. van Heezik, Huisartsen Lammenschansweg 15 C 2313 DH LEIDEN. Tel.: 071 - 512 52 45 www.wendel-vanheezik.praktijkinfo.nl

I used to go to Dr. Boender until he moved practice from Apotheekstraat, he was very good for sure. I now go to Prinsenstraat, the two doctors there are both female, consult in English, and have been very good.

This place is pretty good http://www.dehuisartsinleiden.nl/

Bianca Van de Veude the question was who knows à generaal doktor, leiden expats is not looking for financial assistance, this is not the right place to post your business

Nick van der Werf & partners@Flevowe 35C Merenwijk and Chiropractie Leiden also recommended, all speak their languages

My advice would be to register at the International Health Center in The Hague. They're in Scheveningen, so a bit of a trip, but they all speak English natively (or almost natively) and they are set up especially for expats. I used to be with them and was very happy.

I have no clue, but at least I would like to share with u these tips (someone shared it before, sorry that i didnt remember who, just save the link in case :P) Check it out! http://www.europeanmama.com/talk-dutch-doctors-will-listen/

I go to Huisartsencentrum Leiden :) http://www.huisartsencentrumleiden.nl/mobile/home You can contact them to ask if any of the doctors speak English and to see if they take any patients ^^

Dentist - Middelweg 85: http://www.tandarts-rathsach.nl/.

Hi Mandy, Huisart Boender is our doctor and he has perfect English. He is nice and he has two locations: one in Breestraat and one in Kagerstraat 40, 2334 CR Leiden. Their phone no is 0715120266.

As for your 1 st Q: try Ben. They do a monthly rolling contract and you can be flexible in minutes/data. www.ben.nl As for your 2 nd Q: the basic health insurance probably won't cover that. You will probably have to get additional insurance, but every insurance covers different things in their additional insurance. Maybe it's best to call a few. There was a question on here a few weeks ago about health insurances with an English website and policies, and there were a few. So maybe worth scrolling down a bit and see if you find the links.

For internationals with all kind of questions about health( care) : http://www.internationalhealth.nl

I like my huisarts a lot. Dr. Haring, https://www.huisartsenroodenburg.nl/Default.asp?&HTTPSHASH=

Dr Boender is my GP his English is good and he is a good dr as well.

his phone number:071-5120266, he even has an English talking tape on the phone when nobody answers you.

This guy speaks portuguese, it might help: Dr Nering Bögel (speaks French, Portugese and German), Dahliastraat 26, 2313 VN Leiden, telephone number: 071 5124403

There is an after hours huisartsen post that operates after 5 and on weekends. The phone number is 0900-5138039. Did your huisarts provide an alternative? They must provide access to another huisarts. If you tell me the name of the practice I can call and listen to the message...or maybe your Dutch is good enough to understand what it says!

Try the International Health Centre in Den Haag - it's on the number 1 tram route. Wondering if your practice is closed due to a reason I heard of recently, that if the doctors have already seen the number of patients that they are contracted to see in one year by the insurance company that they don't do anything other than emergencies now until 2014!!!
