I'm a competitive long-distance runner and recently learned that I have a bone spur (Haglund deformity) that will require surgery. I'm very active and am nervous about choosing a surgeon/hospital since I don't have much experience with the medical system in CH.
Does anyone have recommendations for a good orthopedic surgeon in or near Bern? It is also possible that I could go to another canton (checking on this with my insurance) but the hospital MUST be a public one.
I already have a consult set up here: http://www.swiss-sportclinic.ch/ (office located at the Stad de Suisse and ortho surgeries are at Münsingen Spital) and would also appreciate feedback if anyone has experience there. I'm also looking at Schultess and Balgrist in Zurich, if my insurance will allow me to go outside canton.
Thanks in advance!
