About Zuyderland Medisch Centrum
Zuyderland originated from Atrium Medical Center Parkstad and Orbis Medical and Care Group Sittard-Geleen. These healthcare institutions merged on January 1, 2015. The actual merger marked the start of an extensive change process. The combined qualities of Atrium and Orbis have strengthened healthcare in Limburg, both now and in the future. As a teaching hospital, we believe knowledge transfer is of great importance. We learn from each other and choose the best of both worlds. We invest in further specialization and modern medical equipment and are keen to be at the forefront of innovations in healthcare.
Zuyderland has specific expertise in oncology, obesity, mobility and exercise, neurocognitive disorders, and medical care for the elderly. Within each of these medical priorities, we are continuing to build a so-called ‘center of excellence’: a center with unique knowledge and/or skills in the Netherlands, known among fellow doctors as the center or one of the few centers with the most knowledge in the specific area of focus.
We continuously strive to develop and successfully implement applicable new ideas, resources, techniques, services, and processes for healthcare and service provision. By being innovative, we try to optimize the care for our patients. In addition, medical specialists and other professionals are interested in innovations, which stimulates the influx of highly qualified specialists.
