Finding a new GP can be a challenge, especially when your current doctor retires. The new website huisartszoeker.be offers a solution by providing an overview of available GPs in the area. Users can enter their address on the website and see on a map which practices are still accepting patients.
A permanent GP plays a crucial role in a patient's medical follow-up. They know the medical history and serve as the first point of contact for health-related questions.
The huisartszoeker is a joint initiative of the Huisartsenvereniging Scheldekracht and is financially supported by the municipalities of Merelbeke-Melle, Laarne, Lochristi, Wetteren, and Wichelen. The goal is to increase access to primary healthcare for all residents.
