What to Know
Signature approach
The Basel visit is built around a planned diagnostic and follow-up cadence. Patients start with intake and lab selection, then review results with the physician track that fits the problem: functional medicine for root-cause chronic symptoms, or longevity medicine for biological-age and performance-oriented prevention. Treatment can include IHHT, infusions, supplementation, GLP-1 protocols where appropriate, coaching, and repeat measurement.
What sets them apart
- Small physician-led practice. Two FMH internists anchor the clinic, supported by health coaching rather than a large rotating provider roster.
- On-site implementation. IHHT, IV infusions, InBody analysis, and follow-up visits are tied to the same Basel practice.
- Strong early reviews. Reviews emphasize careful listening, equal partnership, root-cause thinking, and noticeable improvements after personalized plans.
Before You Book
- Appointment rhythm. The clinic is open Tuesday through Friday, closes over lunch, and is closed Monday and weekends.
- Booking route. Public booking runs through the contact form or phone rather than a live scheduler.
- Private-pay model. Swiss health insurance is not accepted for the membership model, so confirm monthly fees and add-ons before starting.
- Website mismatch. Some public pages still carry pre-opening language, but Google data and reviews show the clinic is active.
