Building for the future

Since October 2024 the Privatklinik Bethanien and Klinik Pyramide am See have merged. Both clinics belong to the Swiss Medical Network Group. The merger at the Bethanien site and the modernisation of medicine will require some investment in infrastructure. Find out all about the project here.

Stronger together

Finally, in October 2024 the Bethanien and Pyramide am See clinics were brought together at the Bethanien site. The reason is that the Klinik Pyramide building has to be renovated. Operations were therefore concentrated at the Bethanien site and their respective strengths combined. To create enough space and modern structures, an extension to the existing buildings is planned, as well as a new building between Hinterstrasse and Restelbergstrasse.

Expansion of the medical infrastructure

With the expansion of the site, the technical infrastructure will be significantly modernised: A new operating theatre wing, a new radiology department and a new central sterilisation unit are being built. In addition, important medical services for patients with cancer – such as radiotherapy, oncology and nuclear medicine – will be created. This new infrastructure will further expand the interdisciplinary and comprehensive care of tumour surgery patients.

Timeline of the construction phases

1. Attic remodel

The remodelling begins with an extension of the existing attic in the historic building (see marker 111 in the visualisation above). This new space will allow new practices to open, the construction is already being carried out and is expected to be completed in summer 2024.

2. Extension of main building

The pointed gables of the two middle clinic buildings (B and C) will be replaced by flat roofs. This will allow the space on the top floor to be utilised much more efficiently and create beautiful suites with views of the city and Lake Zurich. The two 4th floors will now be connected by a glas passageway (D). These two extensions have already been approved.

3. Temporary radiotherapy

With the construction of a radiotherapy centre, Privatklinik Bethanien is expanding its medical expertise, particularly in the treatment of malignant diseases (cancer). The radiotherapy centre will be built underground in the inner courtyard in front of the main entrance and supplemented with a temporary, above-ground structure (E). A building permit has already been granted for the project.
