I was born, raised and trained as a doctor in the Netherlands. In 2015, my wife and I decided Amsterdam was too busy, too far from the outdoors and was too full of traffic to raise our 2 young boys, so we moved to the beautiful Tasman region.
Since 2015 I have been working as a GP at The Doctors. I have always been interested in skin cancer and minor surgery. I have done traumatic wound care as an ED doctor, assisted surgeons in there minor procedure clinics, and completed extra training in Dermatology and Ear, Nose and Throat to improve my skin care. I have completed extensive training through the Skin Cancer College of Australia. In 2019 I expect to become an Accredited Skin Cancer Doctor.
