About us
Bert Stelder
LP.J. Stelder, GP, BIG: 69024090301
I have over 30 years of experience as a general practitioner. In my daily practice in Zaandam I see more and more patients who are overweight or obese with the resulting problems.
I can help you to lower your risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and achieve lasting weight loss.
Mia Hendriks
MS Hendriks, nurse, BIG: 59005511030
I have a long career in healthcare, first as a nurse and later as a drug research project manager.
My further experience includes the introduction of new medicines for cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
I now bundle my knowledge and experience in guiding clients of Healthy Weight Clinics.
Yara van Dyke
Doctor, BIG: 09929103501
In recent years I have worked as a medical doctor in a hospital and I have seen the consequences of an unhealthy lifestyle and overweight. In the future, I would like to start general practitioner training with a specific focus on prevention and a healthy lifestyle. At Healthy Weight Clinics I hope to guide people towards a healthy lifestyle and lasting results.
Andreas Niessl
Lifestyle coach
In the past 10 years I have gained a lot of experience with coaching in the field of weight problems. I worked for the Dutch Obesity Clinic for 7 years, first as a movement expert and then as a lifestyle coach. During this period I have guided more than a thousand people in the weight loss process (from moderately overweight to seriously overweight).
As a coach, it gives me great satisfaction to be able to contribute to the patient's change process. After all, you have to do it yourself, but you don't have to do it alone.
Gemma de Smet
Doctor's assistant
After a career switch I became a doctor's assistant. From an early age I have been involved with healthy food. In my work as a doctor's assistant, I regularly have conversations with patients about lifestyle and prevention of obesity + cardiovascular disease.
At Healthy Weight Clinics, I spend a large portion of my time answering patient messages and questions.
Marieke van Baar
Diabetes nurse, BIG: 19003972230
I have been working as a nurse since 1985. For the last 23 years I have guided people of all ages with type 1 diabetes. Nutrition, healthy lifestyle & prevention are of my interest. I enjoy doing my part to guide the customers at Healthy Weight Clinics towards their goals that make them feel more comfortable.
Anouk vanAlphen
Doctor, BIG: 89928461901
For the past two years I have been working at the Erasmus MC in Rotterdam as a physician-researcher where I am working on my PhD research. I have a special interest in healthy nutrition, sports and prevention. I can use this at Healthy Weight Clinics to guide clients on their way to a healthier lifestyle.
Willem Gispen
Doctor, BIG: 99930020501
As a trainee GP with previous work experience in nursing homes and psychiatry, I have seen everywhere how great the impact of an unhealthy lifestyle and obesity is on physical and mental health. As a future general practitioner, I am a great supporter of more prevention and a healthier lifestyle and I hope to be able to make others enthusiastic about this. At Healthy Weight Clinics I enjoy working together to achieve a healthier weight and a lasting lifestyle change!
