The One About Going to the Dutch Doctor

Stuff Dutch People Like - A podcast by Colleen Geske

Categories:

In this episode Allard and Colleen discuss all things Dutch healthcare - including their own blunders and some (painfully!) awkward encounters with Dutch doctors.  Why do expats and foreigners have such a hard time getting used to the Dutch healthcare system, and could the Dutch huisarts (GP) simply be replaced by a Paracetamol dispenser?!  Both Colleen and Allard have had their fair share of hospital visits, but find out why they both think 'Dutch directness' and health can either go to together really well....or spectacularly badly!
