You will work in a modern group practice very close to the German border - ideal if you wish to continue living in Germany while benefiting from the working conditions in Switzerland. The region around Schaffhausen combines a high quality of life with very short distances across the border. The commute is straightforward and practical for cross-border commuters.
The practice itself is deliberately organised on a small scale and clearly focused on classic general practice. You will work in a small team of experienced general practitioners, allowing close professional exchange and reliable mutual cover. You will be supported by a well-coordinated MPA team that noticeably frees you up in everyday work.
As part of an established nationwide Swiss network, you also benefit from professional structures in the background without these dominating your daily practice. The medical concept deliberately emphasises quality over quantity: you have the opportunity to take time for your patients and accompany them long-term - exactly as expected in modern general practice.
Your responsibilities:
- Comprehensive general medical care of your patients
- Diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic illnesses
- Building and maintaining long-term doctor-patient relationships
- Preventive examinations and preventive medicine
- Participation in structured chronic care management

Your skills:
- Specialist title in General Internal Medicine or General Medicine
- Interest in working as a cross-border commuter in Switzerland
- Enjoyment of close patient contact and high-quality medicine
- Team-oriented and reliable working style
- Good knowledge of German
Your benefits:
- Working in a manageable, collegial general practice team
- More time per patient and focus on medical quality rather than scheduling
- Ideal location for cross-border commuters from Germany
- Structured processes with noticeable administrative relief
- Modern practice within an established network
- Predictable working hours and good work-life balance
- Attractive conditions within the Swiss healthcare system
