Where would I find an urgent care facility in Brussels

I am visiting for 3 days and need a nurse to change a surgical wound dressing daily

You basically have 3 options for non-emergencies.

You can go to a GP if they have open consultation hours.

There is also the Garde system for stuff after 18:00 or on weekends.

I'd suggest dialing 1733 if you need a doctor after hours.

Avoid the hospital ER for minor things because the waits are insane and it costs way too much.

Heads up regarding Saint-Luc hospital. I had a pretty bad experience there with the staff being super dismissive and arrogant. Might be worth checking other places if you can.

I disagree with the 'avoid hospital' thing. Some ERs have 'Fast Track' stations for minor injuries that actually works pretty well. It is better than waiting for a GP when you are in a rush.

actually used the doctena app last month to get a slot when i had a bad ear infection - it was super easy to book anything through it.
