Birth at Zollikerberg Hospital
"Our focus is on safety for mother and child. Together with the neonatology team, we create the framework for this." Dr Dimitrios Chronas, Head of the Women's Clinic
Pre-natal care and obstetric care have a long tradition at the Zollikerberg Hospital Women's Clinic. We offer you classic conventional medical treatments as well as complementary medical methods. Your safety and that of your child is always our top priority. That is why our department is located in close proximity to the neonatology department, with which we work closely. We therefore also offer comprehensive services for premature babies.
