Focus on people
Bethesda Hospital in Basel has been there for its patients on behalf of health for 100 years.
Bethesda Hospital in Basel was founded in 1923 and is one of the leading clinics in north-west Switzerland. With its four thematic focus areas "Pregnancy and childbirth", "Women's medicine", "Musculoskeletal system" and "Rehabilitation", it offers patients a wide range of individual treatments based on personalised, cutting-edge medicine. The focus is always on the individual as a whole, with specialists in medicine, nursing and therapy working in an interdisciplinary manner. In addition to the top medical services, the over 6,000 inpatients who stay here every year appreciate the dedicated care, the familiar atmosphere, the excellent hotel facilities and the unique location in a green oasis in the city.
Women's medicine - appreciative support for all women's diseases
Women's medicine is a core competence of Bethesda Hospital. From consultations and personal counselling to complex treatment, the specialists are there for patients. The most common conditions treated at the clinic are fibroids, endometriosis, breast and uterine cancer, pelvic floor prolapse, cystitis and urinary incontinence, and because gynaecological conditions are often very complex, the team works closely with colleagues in related fields. In this way, patients receive exactly the treatment that is tailored to their condition.Bethesda Hospital is at the cutting edge of research and technology. Innovative, minimally invasive procedures, such as Sonata therapy, a radio frequency method for the treatment of fibroids with bleeding disorders, characterise gynaecology here. The clinic is also in the process of introducing transvaginal laser therapy, which has already shown excellent results in the treatment of genital atrophies. Some treatments can even be carried out on an outpatient basis and without anaesthetic, and Bethesda Spital combines the advantages of a traditional affiliated hospital with the benefits of an in-house team in clinics run by head physicians. Patients decide before admission whether they wish to be treated by the in-house team, i.e. by the hospital's own doctors and midwives, and/or by affiliated doctors and midwives.As a renowned private clinic in Basel and an active training organisation, Bethesda Hospital plays an important role in the provision of healthcare in the region. It is certified as a "Member of the Swiss Leading Hospitals" and is open to patients of all insurance classes.
