Since 2002 I have been registered as general practitioner. After that I always worked in Amsterdam, the city where I grew up myself, and where I still feel at home. In 2010 I started to work at GP practice Dapperbuurt in a team with my colleague Saskia van Haeringen and our employees. Before I became a general practitioner, I have been working in the medical care for people with a mental disability. These people still have my special attention. I am a general practitioner with a broad interest, and I like to know more about my patients than just the medical part. The context of a medical issue often also determines the well-being of the person, and improving health succeeds better if I know the whole situation.

Mijn naam is Betty Hagendoorn. Ik ben geboren Amsterdamse en heb altijd met veel plezier in Amsterdam Oost gewoond. Mijn artsdiploma heb ik in 2013 behaald aan de Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Hierna heb ik gewerkt in de ouderenzorg en bij de GGD Amsterdam als arts voor daklozen. Sinds 2020 ben ik huisarts en heb ik daarna in diverse Amsterdamse huisartsenpraktijken gewerkt. Inmiddels werk ik met veel plezier 2 tot 3 dagen per week bij Huisartsenpraktijk Dapperbuurt. Ik vind het belangrijk dat er een open en ontspannen sfeer is in de spreekkamer. Ik werk graag samen met de patiënt aan de best passende zorg. Mijn bijzondere interesse gaat uit naar ouderenzorg, dermatologie en sportgeneeskunde.
