“It is gratifying to see someone grow stronger, be able to keep their diabetes under control and/or lose weight. This can really revitalize the quality of their life”.

Background

“In 2011, we graduated as dieticians from the University of Amsterdam, gaining invaluable knowledge and experience at the Slotervaart Hospital, in the treatment of a wide range of ailments. Based on our friendship and the fact that we both had the same approach to the treatment of patients or clients, we created our own practice Steenstra & de Vries Dietetics. We are also affiliated with the ROHA (Regional Organisation of General Practitioners Amsterdam). In our practice, we also treat people who can no longer go to the hospital. And, we offer quality care.

In 2015, we were given the opportunity to join fellow professional therapists at Praktijk Brouwersgracht, with whom we have built up a very good working partnership, as we have the same principles with regard to our responsibilities to patients or clients”.

Professional Associations

Steenstra & de Vries are members of Dietitians Cooperative Netherlands and the Dutch (Kwaliteitsregister voor Paramedici) Quality Register for Paramedics.
