Foot and hand surgery Hand and foot surgery is another of our specialist fields. We treat degenerative medical conditions (arthritis), rheumatological illnesses (polyarthritis), inflammations of the tendons, connective tissue diseases, nerve compression, ganglia, sequelae from accidents or injuries as well as deformities and tumours.

Otorhinolaryngology: ear, nose and throat surgery Ear, nose and throat surgery covers a wide range of interventions: diseases, injuries, deformities and dysfunction of the ears, the upper respiratory tract, the oral cavity, the throat, the larynx, the lower respiratory tract and the oesophagus. Vascular surgery This includes surgery to treat problems in the legs, particularly vascular conditions such as varicose veins. We perform all established and innovative procedures under partial or general anaesthesia. Visceral surgery Visceral surgery (treatment of the abdominal organs) in our clinic is limited to the treatment of hernias and haemorrhoids. Minimally invasive surgery or laparoscopic surgery is used for this surgery, which has the advantage that patients require only a very short stay in the hospital. Plastic, restorative and aesthetic surgery This is a traditional surgical speciality of our clinic, in which we collaborate with our parent clinic, the Pyramide am See in Zurich, to provide selected aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Anaesthesia Before, during and after your operation you will be cared for by specialists in anaesthesiology. The anaesthetic procedures ensure optimal safety and the greatest possible comfort with regard to pain alleviation. Before each operation, you will discuss with your anaesthesiologist the method of anaesthesia best suited to you. Your anaesthesiologists will also be available to you at any time after your surgery to answer questions or provide special pain treatments. |
