During your pregnancy our team of doctors and midwives will provide comprehensive and sensitive care. Our objective is to support the natural course of the pregnancy in a holistic way and to recognise any potential particularities at an early stage.
The Zug Cantonal Hospital can carry out all the necessary medical pregnancy check-ups. A midwife will be with you during the two pregnancy check-ups (the first between 16 and 18 weeksand the second between 34 and 36 weeks) and will provide you with detailed information about the changes during pregnancy and how to prepare for the birth. We are more than happy to address your questions, individual wishes and expectations.
You can also rely on our expertise in high-risk situations. We place great importance on providing comprehensive information about prenatal diagnostics and offer the entire spectrum of examinations including ultrasound, 3D ultrasound, deformity diagnostics, blood tests (ETT, NIPT), amniotic fluid puncture (= amniocentesis) and chorionic villus sampling (=CVS).
