Allow me to introduce myself. Dr. Dr. Daniel Brusco
Owing to the wide-ranging training I’ve undertaken since completing my studies in human medicine and dentistry, as a maxillofacial surgeon I can guarantee the vital overview of the possible diagnoses, and offer the full range of possible therapies. In doing so, experience and a feeling for the individuality of each face play a crucial role, as does giving every case my one hundred per cent attention.

About me
Often, it’s specific events that spark an inexplicable fascination. It was the same for me. Because of a personal experience in my close circle, I had my first contact with maxillofacial surgery in my youth. What was made possible by this surgery sparked in me a fascination that still has a hold over me now, and motivates me every single day.
After completing my studies in human medicine and dentistry at the University of Zurich, I continued my basic surgical training and technical specialisation at various posts in Switzerland and abroad. Always with the same goal: to turn my original fascination into reality. It was clear to me that I would only be able to offer my patients the best possible, personalised solution with sound expertise, a creative passion for shape, and honest empathy. And I am committed to finding this solution. I spend time on it.
But I also spend time with my family. Because as a father of two, I know how precious that is. So I enjoy a convivial gathering around the table just as much as a bicycle ride in the summer, or a day’s skiing in the winter.
