We offer integrative medicine: conventional medicine combined with holistic, functional, and complementary medical approaches. We focus on identifying the root causes, individualized treatment, and prevention. Visit our website to learn more about the therapies and services we offer.

Wise Medicine currently has locations in Winterthur, Brugg, AG, and Zuzwil, SG.

This depends on your insurance model. Please check with your health insurance company whether you need a referral.

Yes, we welcome new patients at all our practices. Please note that some doctors are temporarily unable to accept new patients due to high patient volumes.

Appointments are only possible by appointment.

Initial consultations can only be scheduled by phone. Follow-up consultations can be booked online.

For IHHT appointments and appointments with therapists, please use the online booking.

In Winterthur and Zuzwil we are not a family practice and do not offer family medicine.

At our Brugg location, we currently offer primary care services. Please note that due to high patient volumes, some doctors are temporarily unable to accept new patients.

We are happy to take enough time for you to ensure competent treatment. An initial consultation usually takes around an hour. Follow-up appointments may be shorter.

Yes, that helps us a lot! Please send us reports and documents (not older than six months) in advance by e-mail to the location of your first appointment:

wisemed.winterthur@hin.ch, wisemed.brugg@hin.ch, wisemed.zuzwil@hin.ch.

You can find out which hormone test is right for you either in a hormone consultation or on the website https://censa.de/speicheltest/ and order it there.

Please refer to the instructions enclosed with the test. There you will find step-by-step instructions.

The costs of hormone tests from censa and hormone consultations at Wise Medicine are not covered by health insurance or supplementary insurance.

Basic health insurance (OKP) generally covers the costs of mandatory conventional medical services, such as the initial consultation/triage and certain standard in-office laboratory tests. For special plans (HMO, family doctor model, etc.), please check your coverage directly with your health insurance provider.

Product Description: You are responsible for paying for all non-covered services (NPL) yourself. These primarily include integrative consultations, functional medicine, advanced or specialized laboratory tests (e.g., through laboratories abroad), bioidentical hormone therapies, consultations on micronutrients and dietary supplements, certain infusion therapies, etc.

These services go beyond the scope of coverage defined by law for basic insurance and are therefore considered true additional services. They are not billed through the OKP. A transparent explanation of costs and your written consent (fee agreement) are always provided in advance so that you can make an informed decision.

Certain supplementary insurances cover part of the costs. Check with your health insurance company before the first session. Treatments that are not (partially) covered are self-pay.

Doctor's visits also include preparation and follow-up work, which explains the higher billing time than the pure consultation time. For further visits to the doctor, the "increased treatment requirement" item can be used due to the tariff time limit.

E-mail inquiries with medical content or administrative work will be charged in the same way as a telephone consultation - apart from brief queries.

For security reasons, we encrypt documents attached to an e-mail with your date of birth.

When opening these documents, you will be asked for a password. Enter your date of birth in the form DDMMYYYYY. Example: 01.05.1994 becomes 01051994

The initial triage consultation is generally covered by basic health insurance.

Separated by content: the conventional medicine portion is covered by the KVG, while the integrative medicine portions are private. Time is clearly allocated.

No problem—we limit ourselves to services covered by the KVG.

Yes. Before non-covered services begin, you will sign a written fee agreement (informed consent).

This document clearly lists the services, the estimated costs, and the fact that these costs are not covered by basic insurance. This ensures transparency for you, allows you to make an informed decision, and provides us with legal protection. You can give your consent digitally or in person.

Only standard tests. Specialized tests are covered by private insurance.
