Our method
We are Jans Huisartsen, the modern, general practitioners in Rotterdam.
Our mission is to provide excellent healthcare that meets the needs of today. For example, you can visit one of our practices, but it is also possible to discuss medical issues digitally.
About us
We consist of a permanent and close-knit team of general practitioners and practice employees. Your healthcare and the practices’ business administration are kept separately.
This means that our GPs have more time for what they do best: connecting with patients. Consultations with
us are kept generally to 15 minutes unless you need more time. A longer appointment can also be arranged for you. We strive to make everyone – both patients and our team – feel welcome.
Most of our GPs have been working for Jans Huisartsen since we opened in 2021,
allowing them to build a personal and lasting relationship with their patients.
Our team
The Jans Huisartsen team is
always there for you!

My name is Chislaine Houben and I have been working in healthcare for 18 years. Since 2019, I have been working as a Physician Assistant
My name is Chislaine Houben and I have been working in healthcare for 18 years. Since 2019, I have been working as a Physician Assistant (PA) in general practice. In addition, I work in the Internal Medicine department at Franciscus Gasthuis Hospital. The breadth and versatility of the profession, and the contact with a diverse population—from young to old—make my work very enjoyable and interesting every day. I am also the mother of four young children. My favorite place in Rotterdam is the city center: put me on a terrace (possibly) with company and I'm happy. Enjoyment! I also find the atmosphere in the city during the Marathon very pleasant, and I love walking in Het Park, the Museumpark, and Diergaarde Blijdorp. ...

My name is Saskia Both, I am a general practitioner and the proud single mother of a young daughter. For eight years now, I have enjoyed working as a general practitioner throughout the Rotterdam region. I have focused particularly on the GP out-of-hours service, where I have gained a lot of experience in emergency care. My interests lie in acute GP care and gynecology, but I also have experience in internal medicine. What appeals to me most about being a general practitioner is the personal connection with people. It is special to be able to walk alongside someone for a while—in good times and in difficult times. The variety, the stories, and the trust that patients place in me make this work enjoyable every day. My favorite place in Rotterdam is the Vroesenpark: to sit in the sun and enjoy a cup of coffee or take a walk. For me, it's a beautiful place to pause for a moment amid the hustle and bustle of the city. ...

My name is Ariën Vos. I have worked in various positions in the pharmaceutical industry for over 20 years. I have now been working as a practice manager for three years. The interesting thing about the role of practice manager is that it is very varied and I work with people a lot. What I enjoy most is making patients feel comfortable in our practice and working with the healthcare provider to ensure that we deliver good care. My favorite place in Rotterdam is my home. When I walk out of the building, I can see all of Rotterdam's beautiful landmarks at once—with the Hefbrug being my favorite. And all of this in the most beautiful neighborhood in Rotterdam, Feijenoord. ...

I have been working as a doctor since 2020. I started out in a hospital and now enjoy working as a general practitioner. The best thing about working as a GP is that no two days are the same. I also really like the diversity of the profession, just like the diversity of this beautiful city. As someone who was born and raised in Rotterdam, it seems almost impossible to choose a favorite place, but if I had to, I would choose the Oude Haven! ...

My name is Arjan Thio, I started as a general practitioner in 2020 and have enjoyed it immensely. After working in various practices, I joined Jans Huisartsen. Before my career as a GP, I worked in cardiology and at a care hotel. What I appreciate about general practice is the variety and diversity; no patient and no day are ever the same. Building relationships with patients is also a unique aspect of our profession.
My favorite place in Rotterdam is, quite cliché, the Markthal and the Saturday market attached to it. I love strolling through the bustling market with my wife and grabbing a bite at one of the diverse stalls in the Markthal. Additionally, the Kralingse Bos is truly the most beautiful piece of nature Rotterdam has to offer.

My name is Joselien van Bilsen. I have been a general practitioner since 2014 and working at Jans Huisartsen since May 2024. Before that I worked in practices in The Hague and Rotterdam. I think the general practitioner profession is a wonderful profession. No day is the same. Every patient and every consultation is different. This makes my profession interesting, challenging and never boring. I am originally from Maastricht but have been living in Rotterdam for 12 years now. The beautiful skyline, the mix of modern architecture, historical charm and the no-nonsense mentality make this a pleasant city to live and work in. With its weekly market, market hall, cube houses, central library and many eateries, the Binnenrotte is a fine example of the versatility and vibrant character of our city. ...

I have been working in healthcare for about twenty years. As a practice assistant, I support GPs in his or her work. I now also work as a somatics practice nurse at Jans Huisartsen. Working as a POH Somatiek means caring for patients with chronic physical illnesses - for example, Parkinson's disease, chronic lung disease or a stroke. I think that the best thing about my profession is that I get to guide, advise, and motivate my patients. Abseiling from the Euromast is my absolute favourite activity in Rotterdam. It is wonderful to see the view over the entire city, whilst hanging in the air! ...

I have been working as a Physician Assistant in general practitioners since 2020. The best thing about my profession is the breadth and diversity of the work; I get to meet all kinds of patients and every day is different. I always go to work with great pleasure and enthusiasm, trying to help everyone as best as possible. I have several favourite places in Rotterdam. One of these is the Veerhaven, a wonderful place to walk around and soak in its beauty. I also like to visit Het Park, a place where I have very special memories. ...

My name is Janelle van der Vorm. I have been working as a general practitioner with great pleasure since 2016. I am married, a mother of 5 children, and live in Kralingen. As a general practitioner, no day is the same because you see such a variety of patients in the practice. From small to big problems and from young to old. Everyone is different and has different needs or complaints. With enthusiasm and involvement, I try to help my patients as best I can. My areas of focus within general practice are pediatrics and gynecology. My favorite place in Rotterdam is the Kralingse Plas, which continues to surprise me every time. But perhaps what I love the most are all those places that may not be so special but still make Rotterdam, Rotterdam. ...

I have been working as a general practitioner since August 2016 and have worked in various practices in and around Rotterdam. I like the diversity of my profession the most. No day is the same and that makes it challenging. I find minor surgical procedures, dermatology, gynaecology and ENT particularly interesting. My favourite place in Rotterdam is the Kralingse Bos. It is great going there for a walk or a run, and every season has something different to offer. ...

My areas of interest are in dermatology, minor surgery and orthopedics. I also have an affinity for pediatrics, cardiology and internal medicine. I find the variety within the profession one of the most beautiful aspects. My favorite place in Rotterdam is Blijdorp Zoo, a place where I have fond memories from my childhood and where I still visit regularly with my own family. ...

My name is Siemie Adelij, and I have been working as a mental health care practitioner (POH GGZ) since 2019. It gives me satisfaction to help patients gain insight into their complaints. I find it beautiful to see that by utilizing their strengths and resources, they gain more confidence in themselves. This often reduces their complaints. In addition, I find it interesting to help patients investigate their own behavior and thoughts through cognitive behavioral therapy. I have several favorite places in Rotterdam, but my most favorite place is the Nighttown discotheque, which sadly no longer exists. I met my husband there while going out. We have been together for 28 years now and have two lovely children: a 17-year-old son and a 14.5-year-old daughter. ...

My name is Emma Braun. For the past eight years, I have worked as a doctor's assistant in various practices. I started at Jans Huisartsen as a doctor's assistant and since December 2023 I have been working as a practice manager of our Kralingen and Centrum locations. What I like most about working at Jans is working with all the doctors, POHs and the medical students. In my job, every day is different and I take on every challenge with a smile. I myself am from Rotterdam and there are many places I like to go. My favorites are the Euromast, Het Park and the Binnentuin Stadhuis. ...

I have been a doctor for twelve years, eight of which as a general practitioner and forensic doctor (police doctor/municipal coroner). In September 2022 I joined the team at Jans Huisartsen. I find the best thing about my profession is the diversity of people I care for. Every person is unique in the way he deals with illness and health. Together with the patient, I like to look for the optimal advice and/or treatment that is appropriate for his or her needs. It is difficult to choose my favourite places in Rotterdam as the city has so many cool places! But if I had to pick, my favourites are Het Park by the Euromast, the Witte de Withstraat and the Bergse Bos. ...

My name is Zubeyde Kiliç. I have been working in healthcare for about 10 years and now work as a Somatic Nurse Practitioner at Jans Huisartsen. As a nurse practitioner I support the general practitioner by guiding a piece of chronic patient care and guiding patients through diabetes care, chronic lung disease, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. The diversity of patients and syndromes appealed to me the most. Working in a patient-oriented way and treating everyone individually makes the work interesting for me. I have a lot of favorite places in Rotterdam. But what I like most is to tour through Rotterdam-West and enjoy the atmospheric surroundings and colorful people. ...

I have been working at Jans Huisartsen since 2022 as a Physician Assistant (PA). I also work as a clinical obstetrician at the Ikazia hospital in Rotterdam. It gives me energy to see a patient walking out of the treatment room feeling satisfied and helped. In addition, the range in medical questions/complaints I receive makes every day interesting. As a fanatic runner, the Kralingse Plas and the Rotte are my favourite places in Rotterdam. I also love to discover new restaurants in the city. ...

I have been working as a psychologist for two years and have been working as POH-GGZ at Jans Huisartsen since 2022. As a POH-GGZ I provide support for psychological complaints without a diagnosis. There are many things I love about my job, but if I had to pick one, I would say it is the chance to see patient's courage to be open, honest, and vulnerable on their journey to improve of their well-being. This truly inspires me! My favourite place in Rotterdam is Erasmus University. When I first moved to the Netherlands, the campus was my home away from home where I created some wonderful memories. ...

From February 2023, I joined the team as a POH Somatiek, providing care and support to the chronically ill and the elderly. This includes patients with diabetes, asthma, lung diseases or cardiovascular diseases. I find the diversity of patients and diseases very interesting. I work closely with my patients in deciding what the best options are for them to achieve their health goals. By communicating clearly and openly with one another, we can arrange customised care, and that is what I like best about my profession. The Island of Brienenoord is perfect for a nice walk and an escape from the hustle and bustle of Rotterdam. ...

My name is Selin Alakoç. I have been working as a psychologist since last year, and now also as a POH-GGZ at Jans Huisartsen. My passion lies in understanding, guiding, and treating people who struggle with mental health issues. Witnessing their progress and how they learn to cope with their symptoms and daily stressors is the most gratifying aspect of my work. Although I am still relatively new to Rotterdam, I enjoy exploring the city. Currently, my favorite spots in Rotterdam are Het Park, where I enjoy nature walks, and the Witte de Withstraat, where I like to spend quality time with friends. ...

I am Dr. Robert Mol, a family doctor for 40 years now. I have worked abroad in places like Saba, St. Maarten, and the Netherlands Antilles, where I obtained my doctorate with my thesis 'Doctor on Saba'. Before I joined Jans Huisartsen, I worked at practices in Hoogvliet and Capelle aan den IJssel. My focus is primarily on helping people manage their illness, and if possible, bring body and mind back into balance without too much medication. In doing so, I always try to find a solution in collaboration with the patient. I still see the profession of a general practitioner, particularly its versatility, as a challenge. It's different every day, which makes it incredibly interesting. The Veerhaven in the historical Maritime Quarter is my favorite place in Rotterdam. ...
