Obesity Specialist Doctor

About the job

A historic site, the Pâquis site housed in the 19th century the first infirmary of Morges, then the city’s first hospital, before being converted into a nursing home in the 1970s. With its renovated premises, the site hosts part of the administrative functions of the EHC, such as human resources, finance, and information systems. The "Pâquis" site regained its medical vocation with the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, becoming one of the canton’s largest testing and then vaccination centres. This site now houses the Pâquis Medical Centre, the endocrinology-diabetology centre, and the infusion centre.
