Dr. Wilfred de Koning - Best Lecturer in Medicine
'Wilfred is very involved with the students and especially the PKV teaching student team. For example, he reserved tickets for the entire student team to see the MFVR musical because one of the students played in it. Next year will be the last before his retirement. But he has already said to stay working in education after that. The students can't say goodbye to him for a long time yet. So they encourage this wholeheartedly!
