From 2015 – to 2018, the specialists behind the AAS clinic, Dr. Diederik Smit and Dr. Pim de Ronde conducted a prospective observational study with a systematic approach: the HAARLEM study. The goal of the study was to obtain more reliable information about the health effects of AAS use. In his presentation, Dr. Diederik Smit will tell about his experiences at the AAS clinic and the results of the HAARLEM study.
