Fast personal advice to satisfy your healthcare needs
The Hikos medical specialists can help you navigate the complex Dutch healthcare system. They offer guidance and extra explanation for your visits to your general practitioner or other medical specialists. They are available daily to think along with you outside the consultation room.
Virtual consultation with a medical specialist
During a 20 minute virtual appointment (video call) you can discuss all your questions with the right specialist. This way you are better prepared for your next appointment with your own specialist or general practitioner. You feel more confident, have more control and are better able to make informed decisions about your medical choices.
Do you have supplemental health insurance with Zilveren Kruis, Interpolis, FBTO or ProLife? If so, your consultation will be reimbursed. If you are insured elsewhere: please contact us for the costs.

How can Hikos assist you?
Second opinion light
You have multiple treatment options and are unsure which course to take, or you’d like more explanation from someone other than your own doctor about your diagnosis. Hikos offers a “second opinion light” in these situations. This is comparable to a second opinion, but with the important distinction that we don’t do any physical examination or testing. This is often unnecessary; many patients can be helped by a consultation with an independent physician. The Hikos doctor thinks along with you.
Misunderstood complaint
You have a complaint and have been in the hospital for further investigation. The doctor hasn’t been able to come up with a diagnosis and has referred you back to your GP. Or, there is a diagnosis, but there is no appropriate treatment. You are at an impasse and would like to talk about it. In this situation, the Hikos specialist takes you by the hand and discusses with you what has led to the present situation, where you now stand, and what options may be available for you.
