• Patient intake stop

Due to increasing crowds, we are forced to introduce a partial patient intake stop. Only residents of the center of Zaventem can become patients.

• Nurse
  
  You can make an appointment with our nurse through the online calendar (or by phone). She can assist you with blood tests, vaccinations, wound care, electrocardiograms (ECGs), introductory consultations for new patients, wart treatment, and cervical smears.
  

• Psychologist

We offer psychological support for a wide range of questions and challenges.
Our psychologists provide a safe and confidential environment where you can talk about what’s on your mind.
Our psychologist offers short-term (maximum 8 sessions), accessible support. The support is designed to address problems early on and to work together to find solutions to help you regain your balance.
Ymke Dehon and Hugo Verbraecken are registered psychologists, meaning the RIZIV (National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance) contributes to the costs. If you qualify, you pay a co-payment of €11 per session, or €4 if you qualify for increased reimbursement.
An initial, exploratory consultation is fully reimbursed by the RIZIV and is therefore free of charge.
Through the agreement, you can receive reimbursement for up to 8 sessions per 12 months.
During your first consultation, we will determine your eligibility.

Ymke Dehon is available in our practice on Tuesday afternoons. You can register by email: dehonymke@gmail.com or by phone: 0480683946.
Hugo Verbraecken is available in our pratice on Wednesdays. You can make an online appointment by clicking here or you can contact him by WhatsApp: 0467321270 or by email: contact@ascenda.be.

• Dietitian and diabetes educator

You can visit Kimia Sadeghi on Tuesday mornings as a dietitian. If you have diabetes, you can also visit her as a diabetes educator.

Here are some of the key ways a dietitian can help you:

• Nutritional advice: A dietitian can provide you with personalized nutritional advice based on your health goals, lifestyle, and medical history. They can help you plan balanced meals and snacks that meet your nutritional needs.
• Specific diets: For people with specific medical conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, heart disease, food allergies, celiac disease, eating disorders, or irritable bowel syndrome, a dietitian can offer specific dietary advice and guidance to manage symptoms and improve health.
• Nutritional skills: nutrition education and awareness, meal planning, and portion control.
• Behavioral change: A dietitian can help you address any psychological and behavioral challenges related to your eating habits and motivate you to make healthier choices.
• Support and guidance: Dietitians can provide regular support and guidance to ensure you achieve your goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle in the long term without relapse.
• Eating behavior: Dietitians can help you identify eating behaviors that may contribute to overeating, emotional eating, or other problematic habits. They can teach you how to develop healthier eating habits.
• Lifestyle change: In addition to nutrition, dietitians can also support you with other aspects of your lifestyle, such as improving sleep habits, reducing stress, increasing physical activity, and quitting smoking.
• Habit change: If you struggle to break unhealthy habits such as eating too much sugar or consuming too few vegetables, a dietitian can offer you strategies to make positive changes to your daily habits.
