Do you need medical care during your holiday in Nieuwpoort?
As a tourist in Belgium, you can simply visit a GP, pharmacy or dentist near your holiday address.
- Seeing a GP: you don't need to be registered anywhere, so just pick a GP close to where you are staying. Many GPs have set hours when you can walk in without an appointment, while others only work by appointment, so call ahead or check their website. If you are too ill to go, the doctor can also come to your holiday address.
- Evenings and weekends: outside surgery hours, call 1733 for a doctor on call. If you are not sure whether you need to go to A&E at the hospital, they can advise you as well.
- Pharmacy on duty: if the pharmacy is closed, check apotheek.be for the pharmacy on duty or call the premium-rate number 0903 99 000.
- Toothache at the weekend: on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays between 9am and 6pm, find a dentist on duty via tandarts.be or the premium-rate number 0903 39 969; on weekdays, call a dentist nearby.
- On holiday with your dog: if your pet needs help, you will find a vet nearby below.
- Bring on holiday: your ID card or passport, your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) and a list of the medication you take.
