About John
“The beauty of plastic surgery is that you can come to a decision about the best treatment together with the patient. There are often more options to achieve a good result. My goal is to make people feel good with honest advice.”

I studied Medicine at the Free University in Amsterdam and then general surgery at the Atrium Hospital in Heerlen. I did my plastic surgery training at the MUMC in Maastricht.
