Department Hip Surgery

I am a doctor and would like to refer a patient.

I am a patient and would like to book an appointment.

The Hip Surgery department at Schulthess Klinik is Switzerland’s largest reference centre for hip replacements. The department fits over 1,200 hip prostheses every year and performs complex revision operations. In addition to prostheses, the department also offers the full range of hip surgery. This includes complex joint-preserving procedures including arthroscopic interventions, reorientation of the pelvis and hip joint, and cartilage repair procedures.

All procedures are monitored and documented by our research team with regard to short-term and long-term results, enabling continuous improvement in the quality of treatment. The doctors themselves are actively involved in the research. The highly specialised hip surgery team is led by three professors.

Experience in knee and hip surgery that translates into quality

The data from the Swiss National Joint Registry SIRIS is clear: Schulthess Klinik’s high degree of specialisation and extensive experience has a direct beneficial impact on patient outcomes. Within two years after a hip or knee replacement operation, significantly fewer Schulthess Klinik patients require revision surgery than is the average in clinics across Switzerland. With hip replacements, Schulthess Klinik’s rate is 1%, whilst for knee replacements the figure is 1.1%. This is over two and a half and three times lower than the Swiss average respectively.
