Thank you for that list, it is a great starting point. Much appreciated.

Hi,

We also live in Therwil. Our children go to Dr Irene Zimmermann (also the doctor the local primary schools use) and Dr Guldimann Linggi. They are at Lehngrubenweg 12 in Therwil near the Kanelmatt tram stop. They speak brilliant English. They were recommended to us by other English speaking people and we've been very happy with them so far.

I think my husband goes to Dr Peter Strohmeier at Bahnhofstrasse 21 because we were told he speaks good English too. I haven't been to the doctors since we arrived here but will go there too.

If you need to know anything else about Therwil just give me a shout. I'll try and help if I can.

Thanks Melanie,

That's been very helpful. It is also good to know others opinions and experiences when choosing something like a family doctor.

I've been to see Paul Ruf a few times. He was fine. His reception/nurse staff are excellent - very helpful. The surgery is conveniently located - a short walk from Oberwil tramstop, and on the floor above the lab that does blood analysis etc.
