Family Medicine
We are no longer accepting new patients for general medical care
As of January 1, 2026
Family doctor and HMO models will no longer be available at Checkpoint Zürich
Are you insured under the family doctor or HMO model and have you registered us as your family doctor with your health insurance provider? Unfortunately, this option will no longer be available from 1 January 2026 – we will inform you about the next steps here.
In recent years, we have invested a great deal of commitment and energy in establishing general practice for queer people. However, we have decided to refocus on our core competencies of HIV, PrEP, sexually transmitted infections and trans medicine so that we can always offer sufficient appointments and resources in these areas.
Important: You can continue to submit medical consultations, therapies and treatments at Checkpoint
Zurich to your health insurance company. However, you must choose an insurance model that allows this
by 30 November 2025, for example via ‘free choice of doctor’ or via referral.
For HIV clients
We continue to offer you GP services as part of your HIV therapy with us. You can continue to have all your consultation, testing and medication costs covered by your health insurance. Choose a model from your health insurance provider that allows you to choose your own doctor, or request a permanent referral to us if you are in a tele-model or another HMO model.
For PrEP clients
You can continue to have your PrEP consultations, testing and medication costs covered by your health insurance. Choose a model from your health insurance provider that allows you to choose your own doctor, or request a permanent referral to us if you are in a tele-model or another HMO model.
For trans clients
We continue to offer you GP services as part of your hormone therapy with us. You can continue to have all your consultation, test and medication costs covered by your health insurance. Choose a model from your health insurance provider that allows you to choose your own doctor, or request a permanent referral to us if you are in a tele-model or another HMO model.
