'Good research and diagnostics are essential. This is followed by a good and understandable explanation to the patient.'

Boot followed her training at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and has been working as a specialist since 1996. In addition to her work in Jan van Goyen, she also works two days in OLVG. She practices the full spectrum of ophthalmology, with a special interest in glaucoma, anterior segment and retina.
'The eye is a fantastic organ in which there is a lot to experience. I think it is important that the patient has the opportunity to tell her/his complaint as well as possible. In doing so, I strive to make the best possible diagnosis, possibly after additional examinations, to explain this and then to discuss the possibilities, but also the impossibilities of treatment with the patient.'
