Praxis für Plastische Chirurgie Basel
Verification pending: less of the axis weight is sourced than the threshold requires, so no score is published yet.
Status: verification pending · last checked 31 August 2026
No crown: crowns require register-verified gates, never a clinic's own claim.
Summary
Specialist plastic and aesthetic surgery practice in Basel's old town. Two responsible physicians named with roles; both matched in the federal MedReg register with an active plastic-surgery practice licence and the operating company matched in the central business register. The clinic's own English page describes it as among the "leading centers" in the region.
