For tourists
For any question about illness and health, please consult Thuisarts.nl first. For example, because you are bothered by something, because you are worried about something or because you want to know what you can do yourself.
If you are unsure about visiting the GP and/or General Practitioner, please use the digital form ‘Do I need to see a doctor?’ (MINDD). This will assess whether and when it is necessary to contact the general practitioner and/or the General Practitioner.
Are you staying as a tourist on Texel, in Den Helder, Hollands Kroon or Schagen and do you need care in the evening, at night or at the weekend that cannot wait until the next working day? Then you can go to one of our GP emergency stations.
Care in the evening, at night and on weekends
On working days between 17:00 and 08:00, during holidays and on weekends, you can contact the General Practitioner in case of emergency. The General Practitioner is only for care that cannot wait until the next business day. You must first call the General Practitioner in advance:
- Emergency Square Den Helder: 0223 670 470
- General Practitioner Schagen: 0224 224 040
- General Practitioner Texel: 0222 321 143
General Practitioner Fees
If you have a Dutch insurance, the costs will be claimed from the General Practitioner with your health insurance. Tourists who are insured abroad pay for the consultation (directly) themselves. You can claim the costs yourself from your own insurance.
