WELCOME TO
GENERAL PRACTICE "POORT VAN GAVEREN"

From the first of January 2024 the general practitioners Henriëtte Swijgman and Bjorn Bekkers will continue under the name General Practice Poort van Gaveren (in English "Gate of Gaveren").

The aformentioned name of the practice originates from the characteristic appearance of the "gate" at the entrance. Consequently, the building- in which the GP's office is situated- is known as "the Gate". In the Middle Ages, the building served as a refuge place for the noble family of Gaveren in times of threat. The building now serves as a general practice office. The practice is located a three-minute walk from the Vrijthof, is well equipped and offers all the facilities necessary for contemporary primary care. As the practice is situated in the heart of the Latin Quarter and the Maastricht University faculties, it has a long tradition of being the general practice chosen by (international) students.
