About the Clinic for Children

Integrative paediatric care for children

With over 22 years of experience, our clinic supports children with a wide range of medical needs. We have many years of experience working with expat families, who choose our private paediatric clinic for trusted care during their time in the Netherlands.

International vs. Dutch insurance

If you have international health insurance, it is often possible to visit the clinic without a referral letter for acute care, chronic care, and annual check-ups. Patients insured within the Dutch healthcare system require a referral from their GP.

Our unique approach

The clinic is unique in the Netherlands for combining conventional paediatric care with integrative (complementary) treatment methods. Conventional medicine always remains the foundation, with complementary care used as an addition, never as a replacement.

When standard treatments do not fully resolve symptoms, selected complementary approaches may be considered. Homeopathy, known for its gentle and child-friendly nature, is one of the options offered. By combining medical expertise with carefully chosen complementary therapies, and involving both parents and children in decision-making, we aim to provide the best of both worlds.

Dr. Stephen Buskin

The clinic is led by Dr. Buskin, an English- and Dutch-speaking paediatrician, who personally provides all care, allowing for a continuous and familiar approach. Consultations are often longer than standard appointments, allowing for more personal and attentive care.

Coordination with other professionals

The clinic works closely with a broad network of medical specialists. When needed, your child can be referred for further investigation or treatment within the hospital system, including paediatric specialists such as cardiologists, endocrinologists, and gastroenterologists, as well as dermatologists and ENT (ear, nose, and throat) surgeons.

We also collaborate with paramedical and complementary practitioners when appropriate, including physiotherapists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, osteopaths, dietitians, hypnotherapists and psychologists.
