There are a total of 23 operating rooms in the clinic, of which four rooms are in Köping and 18 rooms are in Västerås.

We place great value on collaboration and individual competence development. We are proud to be one of the most efficient clinics in Sweden, with high quality results and good patient safety. There is also the opportunity to participate in research and development projects. We are currently building a new emergency hospital that will entail significant development of our operations.
