Collaborations with other dermatology centers
Spital Thurgau AG:
A dermatological outpatient clinic at the Kantonsspital Frauenfeld (cantonal hospital; KSF) has been in operation since 2011, and works in close collaboration with the UHZ Department of Dermatology. The clinic is run by senior dermatologists from the Department of Dermatology who divide their hours between UHZ and KSF. The team of physicians receives support from a senior dermatology resident from UHZ who is sent to Frauenfeld for a sixmonth rotation. Dr. S. Nobbe serves as head of the clinic. Other senior dermatologists who have held positions at the clinic include Dr. A. Frauchiger, (since September 2018), Dr. M. Kunz (September 2019–December 2019), Dr. C. Lang (since January 2020) and Dr. A. Cicha (since October 2020).

Hochgebirgsklinik Davos www.hochgebirgsklinik.ch
UHZ works very closely with Hochgebirgsklinik Davos and CK-CARE, both of which are members of the Health and Life Science Campus in Davos. The Kühne Foundation was responsible for establishing a Medical Campus and offers new research and educational facilities in various areas including dermatology and allergy. There are special programs for patients with allergic and inflammatory skin diseases and food intolerances (especially histamine intolerance). Special programs involving a high level of patient care paired with specific educational programs and nutritional and psychosomatic support result in a unique hospitalization experience in a special setting with fully renovated private rooms. This service is led by PD Dr. M. Möhrenschlager, and Prof. M.-C. Brüggen, MD, PhD, with a professorship founded by CK-CARE shared between the Medical Campus Davos and the Department of Dermatology UHZ.
