What we do.

No two cases are the same. We do not offer standardized packages. We design a coordination program for your specific situation, discussed in a personal first consultation.

Second Medical Opinion

When a diagnosis is serious or uncertain, a second expert opinion can change everything. We arrange independent second opinions with Switzerland’s top specialists—preparing your records, coordinating translation where needed, and debriefing you on the outcome.

Three examples from our practice

Anonymized case study

Orthopedics — Canada (British Columbia)

A retired professional from British Columbia had been on the provincial waitlist for knee replacement surgery for over 14 months. By the time he contacted us, his mobility had declined significantly. We arranged a consultation within 8 days, the procedure three weeks later, and post-operative physiotherapy coordination before he returned home. Total time in Switzerland: 12 days.

Orthopedics — Canada (Ontario)

A 58-year-old client from Ontario required hip replacement surgery. After waiting over 11 months on the provincial list with deteriorating mobility, he was referred to us. Within three weeks, we arranged a surgical consultation at a leading Zurich clinic, coordinated pre-operative diagnostics, and managed travel and accommodation for him and his wife. He was back home 14 days after the procedure.

Atrial fibrillation — catheter ablation

A 62-year-old client was recommended for catheter ablation after years of medication-based therapy. We coordinated the specialist consultation, pre-procedure assessments, and post-procedure follow-up care—all within two weeks. The client had nothing to manage except his own recovery.

05 — FAQ

North America — what patients often ask

Swiss private clinics require payment prior to or upon admission. Intercomcare provides transparent cost estimates before any appointment is scheduled. We support you in understanding the billing structure and in preparing documentation for potential reimbursement through your Canadian or US insurance or health savings plan.

No. As a private patient in Switzerland, you can access specialists directly. Intercomcare facilitates this access—we are your referral.

For most specialties, we can arrange an initial consultation within 5–10 business days of first contact. Urgent cases are prioritized.
