European Medical Center

We are looking for new colleagues!

We are looking for new colleagues for our dynamic and European team, who are specia­lists with a hospital activity and an interest in a comple­mentary ambula­tory activity. We rent the "cabinet" on a half-day basis. And we are looking for experienced, dynamic and "evidence-based" specialists. Especially specialists of Rheuma­tology, Neuro­logy or Derma­tology are highly welcomed to strengthen our senso-motoric focus. As we work in the European quarter, consul­tations should be possible in French and English, and a third big European language is highly desired, which can be the maternal language. If you are interested, please send us an email (Mail).

Welcome !

Welcome to the European Medical Center, a clinic or group practice of general and specialized Medical Doctors and para­medical therapists, especially osteopaths and physio­therapists ("kinési­thérapeutes").

There is also a blood sampling every morning, for which you need a medical prescription, and we ask you kindly to arrange an appointment in advance.

We have a secretary (reception), which is open from Monday to Friday between 8:30 and 15:00, but closed on Saturday, Sunday and official Belgian holidays. The reception is also open every morning during the vacation/­holiday seasons, but may be closed earlier on the afternoon in the holiday season.

The reception can help you for all questions regarding our Center and our therapists and they can arrange appoint­ments for most of the therapists - but some manage their schedules them­selves and some accept also appointments via Doctena (EUMC) – please check below.

For any question, just call the secretary: 02 / 280.13.42, or send an email: info@eumc.be (Mail, but the answer may need one or two days).

Our Center is in the heart of the European quarter, in the neighbor­hood "quartier des Squares" in Brussels at Square Ambiorix 40, just 500 m away from Rond-point Schuman and its European institutions, metro and rail connections (see the plan of STIB, the Brussels' metro agency, as PDF, for Schuman). And a bus stop is directly in front of the Center at Square Ambiorix.

Our laboratory

We work with the renowned international laboratory Synlab, which is one of the largest and best in Belgium.

Please note that blood samples are only possible with a prior appointment. For this, please call the reception at 02 / 280.13.42 or make an appointment electronically via Doctena (Link). Please come to our Center some 5-10 minutes in advance, and present yourself at the reception. We need your Identity Card (Belgian or any other) and your medical prescription, and you have to fill a form at first.

Besides the blood samples, our nurse can also do swabs and can take charge of swabs or sample of urine or stool. All samples are collected several times every day by the laboratory and most results are ready in the same evening. Primarily they are send to your prescribing doctor. But with some delay they are also available in your electronic health record ("EHR") - if you have a Belgian registration number ("INSS" or "NISS) and authorised the creation of your EHR previously.

Later, you will get an invoice from the laboratory Synlab. At the sampling, you do not have to pay anything. If you are affiliated to a Belgian insurance, "mutuelle", they will be charged directly for most of the invoice and you get an invoice only for your co-pyament ("ticket modérateur").
