Gynaecological diseases can require a variety of treatment methods - we will decide together with you which is best for you. An operation is often sensible and unavoidable for your well-being. We perform minor operations on an outpatient basis and you recover at home after the procedure. For larger operations, we will support you before, during and after the treatment with a great deal of expertise and empathy and offer you the best conditions thanks to our many years of experience.
We specialise in gentle, minimally invasive surgical procedures. This includes both vaginal and laparoscopic surgical procedures. The advantages of these procedures are lower complication rates and a shorter inpatient stay.
We offer the following operations:
«We attach great importance to professional medical, nursing and therapeutic support. However, human warmth and empathy are just as important to us.»

You are in good hands with us: At Bethesda Hospital, we have been specialising in women's medicine for many years - this is one of our core areas of expertise and we offer you the best treatment in Basel and north-western Switzerland. With us you will find top-class medicine combined with the personal atmosphere that is typical of us.
Are you about to have an operation with us? We are committed to ensuring that your operation is as safe and gentle as possible. Our inpatient specialists mainly operate using buttonhole surgery (laparoscopy). This involves the use of a narrow instrument for which a tiny incision is sufficient. This means that the operation is less painful for you, you recover more quickly and can go home sooner. In addition, this gentle procedure causes less blood loss and the scar after the operation is significantly smaller than after a traditional procedure.
Do you have any questions about this minimally invasive surgical procedure? Your gynaecologist will be happy to explain the individual steps to you in detail.
This also gives us a good feeling: Bethesda Hospital performs excellently in a comparison of infection rates among Swiss hospitals. Thanks to the highest quality standards, we even have one of the lowest infection rates in Switzerland for operations to remove the uterus.
Sonata® treatment
This new form of therapy is currently only available at specialised centres. The Clinic for Gynaecology at Bethesda Hospital is currently the only centre in north-western Switzerland to offer it. In Sonata® treatment, the fibroid is heated in the operating theatre under ultrasound guidance using a special device, causing it to shrink. This procedure is known as radiofrequency ablation or Sonata® therapy and is currently regarded as the gentlest method of treating fibroids surgically.
Fluorescence laparoscopy
Fluorescence procedures can be used to visualise what is not visible under conventional white light. Intraoperative imaging in near infrared (NIR) using indocyanine green (ICG) enables live perfusion assessment of organs (e.g. colon), visualisation of bile duct anatomy and visual support in the detection of liver metastases. The aim was to evaluate the significance and applicability of this diagnostic procedure in the context of laparoscopic routine and emergency interventions in visceral surgery.
We traditionally pass on our knowledge and train future experts - with success: we are certified by the Swiss Institute for Continuing Medical Education and Training (SIWF).

Specialists in gynaecology are responsible for the medical care of women with medical problems specific to women from childhood to old age.
Yes, it means the same thing.
From the age of 21 or if you have regular sexual intercourse, it is advisable to have a screening examination every one to two years. If there are bleeding irregularities or breast/abdominal complaints, the examination should be carried out earlier. Regular check-ups with a gynaecologist are particularly important for the early detection of breast and cervical cancer.
There is no general answer to this question. If a doctor chooses to practise as a gynaecologist and obstetrician, he or she, like a gynaecologist, has high expectations of themselves, commitment and often great idealism.
In difficult situations, a good gynaecologist will also support their patients emotionally. Conversely, in order to be able to help effectively, doctors need a certain emotional distance from their patients.
In short, the professional and human quality of treatment does not differ between (good) gynaecologists. The fact that some women feel more comfortable with a female gynaecologist is mainly due to the intimacy associated with gynaecological examinations and treatments.
Generally speaking, the "chemistry" between you and your doctor must be right. The decision in favour of a particular doctor and their practice often has to do with a personal "gut feeling".
Attending physicians provide outpatient medical services as independent sole proprietorships, not only in their own practice but also in a hospital (outpatient or inpatient). In accordance with a contractual agreement, they are authorised to treat their own patients there and use the institution's infrastructure.
