First appointment and diagnosis

At DEA, you will often know after your first appointment whether or not you have endometriosis. If you do, we will explain which form—or combination of forms—is present.

To book an appointment, you need a referral from your GP. When you register and make an appointment, you will receive a questionnaire by email that is linked to your medical record. We reserve a full hour for the first consultation so that we can discuss your situation thoroughly and answer any questions. During the first half hour, you will speak with one of our specially trained nurses. We will discuss your symptoms and the questionnaire.

 The nurse will then discuss your individual situation with the gynaecologist before the second part of your appointment. Another half hour is scheduled so that the gynaecologist has time to listen to you, perform an ultrasound and explain the findings. All our gynaecologists specialise in identifying endometriosis on ultrasound. We also keep up with the latest developments and follow current guidelines.

Do you have a referral from your GP and are you ready to book an appointment? You can easily schedule one with us below.

Treatment

Receiving an endometriosis diagnosis can bring up many emotions. You may feel relieved to finally have an explanation, but you may also feel anxious or uncertain about the future. You are being told that you have a chronic condition for which there is currently no cure. Fortunately, you no longer have to face it alone: our team will guide you.

We may diagnose a form of endometriosis for which surgery could be needed to give you the best possible quality of life. In that case, we will refer you to a hospital with a specialist department where we know you will receive the best possible surgical care.

After diagnosis, we work closely with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your personal wishes and needs. We understand that every situation is unique, so we take the time to listen and discuss all possible options with you. These may include a low-FODMAP diet, psychosocial support such as resilience training, or medical treatment. Medical treatment involves medication. There are two options: pain relief and/or hormone therapy.

A combination of the options above may work best for you.

Our aim is to create a treatment pathway that is not only effective, but also practical and comfortable for you. Together, we make sure you receive the care you need, with the attention and guidance you deserve.

Holistic approach

At DEA, we understand that endometriosis is about much more than physical pain. It can have a major impact on your emotional well-being and social life. That is why, alongside medical care, we provide extensive support for your emotional and social needs.

Our approach includes personal guidance and counselling to help you cope with the emotional challenges of endometriosis. We create a safe space where you can share your feelings and receive support.

After your diagnosis, you will be fully informed about all available options. Our team offers comprehensive support through a holistic approach, with highly knowledgeable professionals who are personally committed to your care.

You are the one taking the steps, but you no longer have to do it alone. In addition to medical care, we offer appropriate psychological support and lifestyle advice. We give you the insight and knowledge you need to find balance at every stage of life, despite living with a chronic condition.

Costs

Our care falls under basic health insurance and is therefore reimbursed by your insurer. If you have not yet used your annual deductible in full, the costs will first be deducted from it.

We do not currently have contracts with health insurers. Your insurer may therefore reimburse only part of our invoice. In that case, we will waive the remaining amount. Apart from any applicable deductible, you will not have to pay anything extra, and you will not need to pay the amount in advance. You can read more about this goodwill arrangement here. This explanation is also included with the invoice.

You can find our price list alongside this information. It follows the system used by the Dutch Healthcare Authority and includes a claim code, a healthcare product code, a description and the price. Each healthcare product is billed for a period of 90 or 120 days. We use this national system so that you can submit the invoice to your insurer. 

We work with InfoMedics to issue our invoices. InfoMedics sends the invoice on behalf of Stichting M&M. You will receive the first invoice approximately three months after your first visit.

If you have any questions about our price list or how reimbursement works, you are always welcome to contact us by email.

If an appointment is cancelled within 24 hours of the scheduled time, or if you do not attend without notifying us, we unfortunately have to charge €75 to cover part of the cost of the time reserved for you.
