Why choose Hôpital de La Tour?
Multidisciplinary care
If your baby experiences difficulties at birth, a multidisciplinary group of pediatric specialists are on hand to help, including:
The only private maternity unit in Geneva to receive IIA accreditation for neonatal care for premature babies
This accreditation from the Swiss Society of Neonatology means that we can look after babies born from 34 weeks onwards. It also means that babies born from 32 weeks onwards are cared for in our partner facilities (Geneva University Hospitals/Lausanne University Hospital).
This accreditation has been renewed for the next two years, until 2026.
The highest level of care with backup support
We strive to deliver the highest level of care with backup support in place by ensuring pediatricians are available to respond to emergencies and by having experienced medical and care teams provide newborns with neonatal care in accordance with the learning and teaching program from the Swiss Society of Neonatology.
