Short waiting times! At the GGD the queue was a month and a half, here I could go after just one week. Good service, quickly arranged, and it was covered directly by my insurance, what more could you want. Didn't get sick on the way.

Easy, flexible and easily accessible. Also, the people are very knowledgeable. For all issues, you are called before they start poking around. Am very satisfied 😊

Great organisation for travel vaccinations, online everything to plan and you can also call if you have questions. At this location, you can go in the evening (also) and good parking at the location. The nurse gave comfort and was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Settlement with insurance was automatic. Highly recommended!

Staff are super nice and professional. The location is very central and parking well arranged.

Outstanding and well by the format used , everything nice and concise but above all helpful, very well done !👍
