Registered and Contracted
General Practitioner
About me
I am a general practitioner, graduated from the Catholic University of Louvain in 2022 with Great Distinction. I also obtained a certificate in electrocardiography in 2020 which allows me to perform and interpret electrocardiograms (ECG).
Several reasons led me to exercise the wonderful profession of general practitioner. First of all, the unique and special relationship of trust between a doctor and his patient. It allows to take care of a medical problem in a comprehensive way while taking into account the specificities of his patient. I also chosed this specialty for the diversity of pathologies and patients (children, adults, elderly people).
In addition to my activity as a general practitioner, I also work in a hospital emergency department as well as in a company that organizes the repatriation of patients from abroad.
I warmly welcome you to my office every day except on Thursday afternoon, in French, Italian, Spanish or English.

I welcome you in my office every day except on Thursday afternoon only with an appointment.
When making an appointment, please mention the reason of your visit.
A fee will be charged for any missed appointment without notice, as provided by the College of Physicians.
Unfortunately I don't do home visits anymore.
Video consultation
By selecting "video consultation" when making an appointment, you will receive a link by email and SMS just before the consultation.
All you have to do is click on it at the time of the appointment.

Prescription renewals are only available for patients already registered with the practice and must be done exclusively during a (video) consultation.
Please ensure you have enough medication until your next appointment when visiting the practice.
Results of tests
By selecting "To be called back for results" when making an appointment, I will contact you by telephone at the scheduled time to inform you of your results.
Medical Record (DMG)
It is strongly recommended for patients affiliated with the Belgian health insurance to have an complete medical file with a general practitioner.
This file improves the quality of care, centralizes your health data and allows you greater reimbursement of your consultation by the health insurance.
It is fully paid by the health insurance, so you don't have to pay anything.
To create it, just let me know during the consultation.
Emergency
In case of vital emergency, dial 112.
For non-vital emergency, if I am not available, contact the general medicine on-call by dialing 1733 (contracted rates, during weekday evenings and weekends) or SOS doctors at 02/513.02.02 (available 24/7).
Fees
If you are affiliated with a Belgian health insurance, you will only pay the non-refundable part of the consultation, known as "tiers-payant".
