The Privatklinik Obach extends a warm welcome to you and your guests. Good recovery begins in a positive, familiar environment, which is why the Privatklinik Obach lives a friendly atmosphere of trust and security. True to the motto: small but nice!
Here you will find all the important information for your stay with us.
Your date of admission and appointments for preliminary medical examinations will be arranged with your doctor according to your needs. You will receive all the information - including checklists - for your admission in advance.
During the anaesthesia consultation on the phone or on-site, you will learn important information about the planned anaesthesia. Therefore, please respond to our call or arrive on time for the on-site appointment. For the anaesthesia and operation preparation, you must bring along existing documents such as a list of medications, allergy passport, laboratory results, X-rays and ECG. Read the anaesthesia brochure you receive carefully. After an anaesthetic procedure, you must not operate machines or vehicles, or sign documents for 24 hours.
Your well-being and the quality of your stay are our top priority. To make your stay even more comfortable, you have the option of benefiting from additional hotel services and upgrading to a twin or single room. You can find out more details in our upgrade brochure.
For personal advice, please contact our patient administration at +41 32 626 23 23 or empfang@obach.ch.
You will register at our main reception on the day of your admission. After the entry formalities, you will receive all the necessary information about your daily schedule and we will take you to your room or directly to the surgery preparation.
Please take the following items with you (if you have them):
We recommend that you do not take any valuable items or large amounts of cash with you. We cannot accept any liability for losses.
Please note that you must be sober on the day of the operation. This means that you must not eat any solid food for 6 hours before admission. You may drink clear liquids (water and unsweetened tea) up to a maximum of 2 hours before admission.
To ensure optimal sterility during the operation, you must not wear any jewellery - except for your wedding ring. Make-up and nail varnish must be removed before the operation.
Refrain from smoking and chewing gum on the day of the operation.
The date of discharge is agreed with your attending doctor. As a rule, patients are discharged by 09:00 o'clock. We ask you to sign out with your nurse and then at the reception.
You should discuss any follow-up care with your doctor in good time. The Patient Administration staff will also be happy to answer any insurance questions you may have.
Our nursing staff know your operation and the possible after-effects. After the operation, you will be informed about the further procedure (special body care, positioning, pain therapy, special aids, etc.).
All diets and nutritional requirements are taken into consideration; we adapt our recipes according to restrictions and offer vegetarian, vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free alternatives.
Please notify our hotel managers of any dietary restrictions

Reservation
Patients insured in Switzerland (general, semi-private and private as well as accident and illness) can be treated at the Privatklinik Obach.
Prior to the patient's admission, the Privatklinik Obach requests a cost approval for the stay from the health insurance company or accident insurance company. If the health insurance or accident insurance does not guarantee full cost coverage, a deposit may have to be paid before admission. In this case, you will be informed in advance by our patient administration.
We prepare the bill in accordance with the contracts concluded with the insurance companies and in accordance with the valid health insurance tariffs of the Canton of Solothurn. We settle directly with the Swiss health insurance companies. You will therefore only receive an invoice for the services that are not covered by the health insurance (for example, telephone costs, costs by your guests, etc.). For quick billing, the patient administration is dependent on correct insurance information.
Reception is open on weekdays from 06:30 to 20:00, on Saturdays from 08:00 to 18:00 and on Sundays and public holidays from 09:00 to 11:00 and then again from 14:00 to 18:00.
Small souvenirs, nice gifts and sweets can be found in our small kiosk right next to the reception.
Generally insured: 14:00-20:00

Our bistro is open for you from Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00 and on Saturday and Sunday from 13:30 to 17:30.
