Anke Kuijpers

From 2022 I will be working as a surgeon-oncologist at the Netherlands Cancer Institute. Early on in my training as a doctor, I was highly motivated to contribute to the treatment of patients with cancer. As a surgeon at the Netherlands Cancer Institute, I am involved in the treatment of patients with various types of skin cancer (including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma) and soft tissue tumors (sarcomas).

We work in specialized teams to ensure that we can create a suitable treatment plan for each patient. We are also constantly working to improve the treatment for our patients through scientific research. The combination of the dedicated care for the patient and the opportunity to research new treatments make the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek a very special hospital for me.
