You can begin remotely: we arrange a review of your records and a professor's second opinion before you travel. Next comes a programme with a clear cost estimate and timeline: diagnostics, an intervention if required, and cardiac rehabilitation.

Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions
How much does heart treatment in Switzerland cost?
The cost depends on the diagnosis, the scope of procedures and the clinic. As a guide: a cardiac check-up from CHF 3,500, stenting from CHF 15,000, coronary artery bypass surgery from CHF 45,000. You receive the clinic's exact cost estimate before treatment begins.
Can I get a professor's opinion without travelling to Switzerland?
Yes. We arrange a review of your records and a second opinion from a professor in the relevant field, before any travel is planned.
Do I need to speak a foreign language?
A medical interpreter accompanies you to your appointments and remains available throughout your stay in Switzerland.
How long does it take to organise the trip?
Usually 5–10 working days, depending on urgency and whether a visa is required.
Why come through CorSwiss rather than directly to a clinic?
We are your independent representative and a full-service Swiss medical concierge. We select the best specialist for your case from across Switzerland, arrange a second opinion and agree a transparent cost estimate before treatment begins. From there, everything is in one pair of hands: medical visa, flights and transfers, accommodation, including for those travelling with you, a personal medical interpreter at every appointment and a 24/7 assistant for any practical matter. Your personal medical manager guides your case from the first enquiry until you return home, and stays in touch afterwards: we monitor results remotely and coordinate your rehabilitation.
