Obesity Specialist Doctor

About the job

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