Our medical practice assistants (MPAs) are an important part of the patient care that we provide.
Silvana Raimann, Vanessa Gruse, Nicole Weidmann, Martina Bürki and Birgit Soom are your first points of contact when you visit or call us at the practice. Our practice is a training company with our apprentice Lena Oberli under the supervision of our vocational trainer Vanessa Gruse.
They each have a wealth of basic medical knowledge and extensive experience, and are available to assist you themselves or to arrange an appointment for you with one of our doctors.
Our MPAs support us throughout all stages of treatment in the laboratory and during medical examinations, making an important contribution to the success of the treatment.
We hope you will feel at home with us and rest assured that you are in good hands, whatever your reason for visiting.
