About us

The experience of care is often seen as

  • cold.
  • intimidating.
  • profit-driven.

Our promise

Humanising medicine.

Quai Santé, medical centre at Montreux station: 16 doctors and practitioners, 6 specialties, under one roof. Serious in substance, human in style.

Our 4 pillars

A medical centre built like a station.

Four pillars hold Quai Santé up, like the columns and the arch of the station's glass roof.

Pillar 1 of 4

Swiss standards.

Experienced FMH-certified doctors and high quality standards, for reliable care at every stage of your treatment.

Pillar 2 of 4

Seen quickly.

On-site emergency care and simple appointment booking by phone. Your time matters as much as your health.

Pillar 3 of 4

All under one roof.

6 specialties that work together every day. Your care pathway stays smooth, with no need to go from one address to another or repeat your story.

Pillar 4 of 4

Right in the station.

A few steps from the platforms at Montreux station. By train, by bus, on foot or by car, your doctor has never been so easy to reach.

Our story

A simple idea: one roof.

Quai Santé SA was founded in 2017, driven by the vision of an innovative multidisciplinary centre: bringing several medical specialties together under one roof, in the heart of Montreux station.

Today, 16 doctors and practitioners from 6 specialties work together here, across 700 m² and two floors: walk-in emergency care on the 3rd floor, consultations by appointment on the 4th, with radiology and the laboratory on site.

Our ambition: to humanise medicine, and to change the way people see an experience of care too often perceived as cold, intimidating and profit-driven.
