Who we are
Tjitte Verbeek van Buuren, general practitioner
My name is Tjitte Verbeek van Buuren, and in our general practice I work since 2018 as a general practitioner. As you may have noticed, I am of Frisian descent. (Friesland is a province of The Netherlands). I was born in the small village named Warns, and raised in Wommels. After finishing high school in Sneek, I moved to Groningen for medical school.
During my study, I was very interested in participation in the medical faculty. I did this both on small (year representation) and large scale (Councilor of Medicine in the Education and Research Council) with pleasure. I also enjoy teaching. Besides getting lectures, I gave education to junior students.
I received my PhD in medical research into the effects of a maternal postnatal depression on adolescent offspring.
In 2016 I was married and my wife Lianne a general practitioner as well. Together we have a son.
