In the Netherlands, General Practitioners (GPs) are your first point of contact for all non-emergency health concerns. They handle everything from routine check-ups and prescriptions to managing chronic conditions and minor procedures. GPs also provide referrals if you need to see a specialist. Registration with a local GP is essential, as they coordinate most of your medical care. This system ensures accessible, personalized healthcare for everyone, including expats.
