Dr. H. Eggink

Dr. H. (Wieke) Eggink works as a pediatric neurologist at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), with a focus on movement disorders in children and adolescents. In 2019, she obtained her PhD with the dissertation "Moving forward in early-onset movement disorders", which centered on the multidisciplinary approach to movement disorders in children and young adults, particularly dystonia.
