Department of Obstetrics

The Department of Obstetrics at the University Hospital Zurich accompanies around 2,500 births each year and offers comprehensive care from pregnancy to the postpartum period. At the clinic, a team of experienced obstetricians, midwives and nursing professionals provides professional and compassionate support for expectant parents. The clinic's concept encompasses individual, holistic care in which the self-determination of the parents is at the forefront. The clinic offers various birth options, including natural and gentle births, water births and various birthing positions. This enables parents to decide for themselves on the best course of their birth.

In addition, the clinic ensures that the mother-child bond is supported through rooming-in, which means that newborns can stay close to the mother in the first days. The Department of Obstetrics has also regularly received awards for its high quality; in a national comparison it is regarded as one of the best specialist clinics in Switzerland. The positive reviews of its experts attest to the public's trust in the clinic.

The modern premises and the equipment of the delivery rooms offer families a comfortable experience. Through regular information evenings and various courses, expectant parents are optimally prepared and informed.
