M. van der Pas

General practitioner, BIG nr: 59909274701

As a doctor I like an open and friendly approach. Together withmy colleagues I want to deliver modern GP care while maintaining the personal relationship with the patient. I was born in 1981 and grew up in the east of Amsterdam. In 2007 I graduated as a doctor from the University of Amsterdam-AMC. I have worked as a doctor in the internal medicine department of the Lukas Andreas Hospital in Amsterdam West and at the emergency department of the Flevo Hospital in Almere. With this experience, I started on the GP course at the AMC in 2009 and early 2012 I finished successfully. I then worked as a general practitioner in Curaçao for half a year. I have a special interest in small surgery , anti-inflammatory injections and elderly care as well as palliative care (care in the last stage of life). I enjoy working in the multicultural neighborhood Amsterdam Zuidoost very much. I am married and have two daughters (2010 and 2013).

General practitioner, BIG nr: 89909571101

Since I became a GP I have been working with great pleasure in Amsterdam Zuidoost. Previously in the Holendrecht district, but from February 2018 at Huisartsen Ganzenhoef. I grew up in the neighborhoods Bullewijk and Holendrecht and attended primary school there aswell. At primary school I already knew I wanted to become a doctor. During the study of medicine at the VU, it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to become a general practitioner. I like the diversity of the work of a GP. There is no day like the other. During my office hours I see all sorts of different people, of different ages and with all kinds of different problems passing by. Before I became a general practitioner, I worked in a nursing home for a year. During the GP training I gained extra experience in psychiatry, rheumatology, emergency first aid and in paediatrics. I also worked in general practices in Amsterdam-South and in Osdorp. I find it special that I can work on your health, together with you, nearby the neighborhoods where I grew up. Of course I wish you great health but when necessary, I welcome you at the consultation hour.

I. Sporkslede

Psychologic therapist (POH-GGZ)

My name is Ingrid Sporkslede. I have been working in healthcare for 40 years, of which the last 20 years as a social psychiatric nurse (SPV). I’ve been working at Arkin as an SPV since 2006 and as a psychologic therapist (POH GGZ) at various general practices; in February 2019 I started at Huisartsen Ganzenhoef.

Over the years, I have increasingly focused on transcultural issues, including Winti.
On the one hand because of my own background, but mainly because I noticed that there is a need for it. The Netherlands is becoming increasingly diverse in terms of cultural and religious backgrounds. This can entail other issues and other approaches in healthcare.
As a Winti consultant and transcultural worker, I help people from non-Western cultures, who sometimes have a different explanation for their illness than those given in regular care. The trajectory that is started with them often does not match their own ideas and beliefs. My approach is always used as a dual track policy; together with the practitioner, I let the Western and non-Western treatments match.

I think it is important that everyone is heard and that everyone feels that he/she is being taken seriously here with his/her complaints. I am open to all people, cultures, religions and backgrounds. Taking people as they are is very important to me.
