Clear communication between the patient and the medical personnel is vital for successful treatment. The doctors and the majority of the nursing staff of the hospital speak fluent English. We provide an interpreter for patients who require translation into or from their mother tongue for the essential medical consultations.
It is also possible to provide interpreters on an hourly basis in addition to the essential medical consultations. The interpreter will bill the patient separately for additional interpreting services. Please inform us if you would like the additional services of an interpreter.
Multilingual staff at the International Office are available for all administrative and organizational matters. Information is provided in German, English, Arabic (8 a.m. - 12 a.m.), Russian, Ukrainian and French.
