One of the most established facilities in the canton of Vaud, with key competence in ophthalmology and a modern imaging unit, in the centre of Lausanne.
Founded in 1932, Montchoisi Clinic has been one of the most reputable facilities in the canton of Vaud throughout its history. It was acquired by Genolier Swiss Medical Network in 2003 and has since been entirely renovated and modernised.
Every room has an unrestricted view over Lake Geneva and the Alps, and the top floor holds a presidential suite and junior suites.
