Medical aid

Medical aid (emergency, pharmacy, doctors)

With your health insurance (see section Health insurance) you are entitled to visit any general practitioner or dentist. If you have eye problems or any other problem you should first visit a general practitioner, who will examine you and then, if necessary, arrange for you to see a specialist.
Unless it's urgent, we recommend to make an appointment in advance on the phone. Don't forget to take the insurance card, number or any document proving your insurance.
