Consultation by telephone
For short medical advice or test results, please call the assistant. If necessary, dr Hofmans will call you back.
House calls
We make house calls only if you cannot come to the surgery for medical reasons. Transportation problems are not medical reasons. We prefer to examine and treat you at the practice, where the facilities for physical examination and treatment are better.
You can request a house call between 08.00 - 10.30am on our general number 070- 386 88 65.
The assistant will let you know when the doctor will visit you.

The assistant
The assistant has an important role. She answers the telephone, gives medical advice and she caries out a number of medical tasks independently. She works under the supervision of dr. Hofmans and is bound by patient-doctor confidentiality just like the doctor. When in doubt, she will consult dr Hofmans.
