General practitioner RTN Oud in the Rivierenbuurt in Amsterdam is a NPA certified general practitioner and a tutor attached to the University of Amsterdam. Every year we train a doctor in the last, third year of his/her general practitioners specialisation. The practice complies with the strictest quality and care requirements. In essence we have two doctors taking care of our patients – where there is normally one – which means there is relatively more time for the patient.

The practice is accredited by the Dutch College of General Practitioners and the NPA. This means the practice complies with strict quality requirements that are assessed annually.

Psychological care

A lot of our patients have indicated that they are very satisfied with our psychological care. Paired with our special interest in the field and extensive knowledge based on multiple courses and trainings we can say that we are confident in the psychological care that we offer to our patients.

Family care

The practice has a lot of family care experience, especially when it comes to families in the big city. Families in big cities experience more stress, there are more parenting problems, more divorces and a lot more single parent families – when compared to families living in the countryside. Throughout the years we have become experts for these specific challenges and problems.

Elderly care

Elderly care is often complicated in the big city. We have a lot of experience in elderly care (nursing home care, dementia care). To us the complexity of elderly care is a challenge. Prevention is better than cure, especially when it comes to caring for the elderly.

STIs

We have extensive experience when it comes to STIs and sexual complaints. General practitioner Oud has worked for many years at a STI polyclinic; he attends courses on the subject and tutors other doctors on STIs as well. Talking about sex isn’t a problem in our practice; to us it’s a normal thing! Prevention is better than cure!

HIV care

Our practice has a long tradition in caring for people with HIV. We have built a lot of knowledge in caring for people with HIV and we are extending that care at the moment. HIV care equals chronic care and the general practitioner is a specialist in this field. That is why we started a project to optimise HIV care in STI polyclinics and GP practices specialised in HIV care. We can do a lot of check ups in our practise, which means less hospital visits for people with a stabile chronic HIV infection. This takes away the stigma and increases the personal contact with your general practitioner.

Students

There are a lot of students living in the neighbourhood with specific issues like study related stress, relationship problems and STIs. The general practitioners in the practice have a lot of experience with these problems.

Travel advise

General practitioner Oud is a LCR certified GP specialised in travel medicine. He can personally advise you in detail on required vaccinations, other necessities (for example malaria medication) and health risks that could occur while travelling.

If you are planning to travel it is wise – and sometimes required – to inform yourself and get the right vaccinations. We can help you with this in our practice, so you won’t need to make a visit to the GGD.

We administer all required vaccinations in our practice – we have most of these in stock. Please be aware that you sometimes need to pay for this in cash during your visit. Our pricing is competitive! Do not forget to bring your vaccination booklet. It is also possible to get one at the practice.

Please make an appointment with the assistant if you want travel advise from GP Oud. Please make sure to explicitly mention to the assistant that you would like travel advise from the doctor.

If you want to make sure to get a vaccination during the consult, you should fill in this form. We will contact you after receiving the form to schedule an appointment.

Nurse practitioner

The practice has a nurse practitioner that systematically checks diabetes and lung patients on Wednesdays.

Research shows that this greatly improves the quality of life of these patient groups.

You can make an appointment for your check ups with our assistant.

You can reach the nurse practitioner on Wednesdays between 13:00 and 13:30.
