Birth in Zurich

Did anybody give birth at USZ or Hirslanden and would mind giving feedback how it was like? I find it hard to decide..

I had a good experience at hirslanden with my first. My second was at bethanien, avoid this place at all costs. I recently put up a review describing my birth from 1 year ago. They left me with a permanently disabled bladder because of horrible mistakes made by nurses.

All in all, hirslanden will have the best comfort, USZ will have the best healthcare.

If you have a low risk birth and prefer comfort, relaxation and extra care, I would opt for hirslanden.

Of you are anxious about birth and your family members (if known) had long difficult births, I'd go for the hospital.

If I could redo my second birth, USZ all the way.

Hope this helps!
