Centre for Mental Health
"No health without mental health. At Zollikerberg Hospital, we see people as an indivisible whole and treat them with a basic bio-psycho-social understanding. This also includes paying attention to the mental aspects of physical illness and regaining health in mental crises." Dr Ruedi Schweizer, Medical Director of the Centre for Mental Health
