Schulthess Klinik The leading orthopaedic clinic

The scientific work carried out by the Teaching, Research and Development department supports the clinic’s departments and thus helps improve patient care. Our research work is continuously providing new insights into the treatment of orthopaedic patients and reinforcing Schulthess Klinik’s international reputation as a centre of excellence.

Many of our multidisciplinary projects are carried out in cooperation with other institutions in Switzerland and abroad.

Schulthess Klinik was established in 1883 and became a non-profit foundation – the Wilhelm Schulthess Foundation – in 1935. Since then, it has remained a non-profit organisation. The Board of Trustees is made up of 17 people from a variety of industries.
