important information:
We review submitted patient reviews for compliance with our guidelines. The criteria are authenticity, appropriateness and compliance with our privacy policy. Assessments with the label «verified rating» have been confirmed by the patient with a mobile number. This gives you greater trustworthiness.

We do not offset patient ratings entered online with other quality indicators. The patient feedback therefore does not influence the scores or the ranking of the hospitals / clinics on our leaderboards. We present the feedback, which does not violate our guidelines, as we have received it. We kindly ask you to carefully consider to what extent these ratings are important for your choice of hospital.

It was the friendliest staff I have ever encountered. There was nothing missing. If possible, every wish is fulfilled. The food was first class. It is a modern, well-structured hospital.

One has the feeling one (the health insurance) is being ripped off. Tests are carried out which are not necessary at all. No consultations with the family doctor or cardiologist. Apparently only young and inexperienced doctors are present.

Today I am operated on in the new hospital, the nursing staff I am not sure if everyone is trained, I have to wait a long time for painkillers then I have to wait, the infusion was not done correctly then they did not try to do it again, then I went without it, no answer to every question 

About the surgery:

Gastric bypass, everything was great, but afterwards the nursing staff was not good, no help with anything I continue without painkillers, without infusion, because at first it was not done correctly, until now I hear "we are checking it" my blood pressure is very low, no action

I unfortunately made a very negative experience. problems during anesthesia, loveless and rare care, downplaying of mistakes, infection of the surgical wound, etc. After discharge I had to go for control and therapies about a dozen times. Orthopedics and nursing care are inadequate

Came to the hospital as an emergency (appendix). Top support from the beginning and quick preparation for the surgery. Delivered at 6:00pm and about 4 hours later all was over. No complaints, only three mini scars as a point. Could go home on the 2nd day.

I am extremely satisfied with everything about my hospital stay. Both the well-organized preparations, the operation itself and the days afterwards made me feel very well looked after. Big thanks to the nursing staff on the 7th floor: their compassion and care just when I was feeling bad was great

Was wrongly treated in this hospital. Long waiting time, 4 1/2 hours nothing happened. Lack of competence. Went to another hospital outside the canton of SO. Were warned about long waiting times. After 2 3 /4 hours I was able to leave the hospital including treatment and was free of pain SoH not recommend

II rate on behalf of my mother (last week's treatment) and my dad's (3 years ago): in both cases, we experienced bad internal communication as well as with us as relatives. Partly deficient care, tight space and partly inhumane (food in the stairwell at the rehab)
