About Swiss Medica XXI | Swiss Medica

Opening in October 2024, Swiss Medica Hospital in Belgrade
spans 10,000 square meters across five buildings.

We started in 2011 in Lugano, Switzerland, when a group of medical specialists created a project to apply their knowledge in regenerative medicine. Their goal was to explore the application of cell products in treating different diseases, especially those related to tissue damage.

What Is Our Capability?

Swiss Medica specializes in the most cutting-edge stem cell therapies.

An Array of Cell and Biomedical Products

We use more than 31 ethically sourced cell and biomedical products, which allows us to tailor the treatment to the unique needs of each patient. Among them:

multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MMSCs),
the stromal vascular fraction (SVF),
fibroblasts,
regulatory T-cells,
bone marrow mononuclear cells (MNC).
macrophages
neural stem cells
+ Cell derivatives (exosomes)

This versatility allows us to create personalized and targeted therapies that can be specifically tailored to an individual’s needs, maximizing the potential for successful outcomes.

In-House Laboratory

Our in-house cell laboratory adheres to strict Grade A cleanliness standards and includes incubators for cultivating cells and cryopreservation facilities for long-term storage of patients’ stem cells.

It allows us to manage the entire stem cell therapy process internally. We personally check the cells for sterility, making the treatment safer by eliminating the risk of infection during transport. Additionally, we can activate the cells ourselves after thawing, check their viability, and prepare them optimally right before administering them to the patient.

That’s why patients can receive stem cell therapy more easily, as there is no need to send the stem cells elsewhere for processing.

This article offers an in-depth look at our laboratory, giving you a complete understanding of its features and capabilities.

Tailored Delivery Thanks to Diverse Methods of Cell Product Administration

We also use all types of cell product administration: intravenous, intrathecal, intramuscular and other local injections. Each method of administration may offer unique advantages in terms of targeting specific areas or systems within the body and optimizing the delivery of the cell therapy to where it is needed most.

Where is the clinic located?

Initially, in 2011, the clinic was located in St. Gallen, Switzerland as well. But in 2016, changes in Swiss regulations prevented us from treating patients in Switzerland using donor cells.

This posed a problem because certain diseases require donor cells, which are often more effective than the patient’s own weakened cells. Conditions like MS, ALS, and Parkinson’s fall into this category. As a result, we had to find a new location for our clinic.

Now our main therapeutic base is in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. In this inpatient clinic, we have the medical resources to treat a wide range of diseases and disorders mentioned above.

For a deeper understanding of Serbia, we invite you to explore this article.

Our clinic provides well-equipped procedure and physiotherapy rooms for the most comfortable treatment.

Patients also receive integrated therapy, including the introduction of cell products and various rehabilitation techniques such as

IMR therapy,
Kinesiotherapy,
Manual therapy,
Plasmapheresis,
Hardware physiotherapy,
Individual lessons with a speech therapist and occupational specialist.

These techniques enhance the regeneration and revascularization of injured areas, leading to improved outcomes in cell-based treatments.

Why Is Serbia an Excellent Place for Your Stem Cell Treatment?

Serbia’s Regulatory Advantage

Serbia adheres to European standards of medical care. It also has established regulations permitting certain regenerative medicine therapies, including mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy. These make it favorable for clinics, such as Swiss Medica, to offer MSC therapy under specific requirements.

It’s a Cost-effective Destination—You Save Money

Healthcare expenses can vary greatly across countries. Operating in Serbia allows Swiss Medica to offer MSC therapy at a more affordable rate compared to clinics in other countries, particularly Switzerland. This increases the accessibility of treatment to a wider range of patients.

Serbia is More Accessible for International Patients

Belgrade is well-connected by international flights and has a robust infrastructure for medical tourism. It only takes 2.5 hours by flight from major European cities. Patients from various countries can easily travel to the clinic in Belgrade to receive MSC therapy without encountering significant logistical hurdles.

Swiss Medica’s Work Standards

We strictly follow the legal and regulatory standards of the country where we operate—Serbia. Our treatments are administered by licensed medical professionals with vast experience in stem cell therapy, ensuring adherence to rigorous ethical and medical guidelines.
