Available on: monday, tuesday, thursday, friday
General Practitioner R.J. Vogels was trained at the Erasmus MC and graduated as a physician in 2018. After a year in the Internal Medicine / Emergency Department, he pursued general practitioner training while also working in a nursing home. In 2022, he completed the general practitioner training with honors. ‘The diversity of general practice is beautiful; nowhere else are you so close to your patients, able to practice medicine in such a broad spectrum. I consciously choose practice ownership in a form that suits me and that I believe in. Not scaling up but scaling down. The strength of good healthcare depends on the doctor-patient relationship, being truly present for people, providing tailored care. The challenges for healthcare are enormous and will only grow. By practicing medicine in a new way, with short communication lines between doctor and patient, utilizing all the digital possibilities available, I believe we can meet those challenges.
