Approval regulations

In the Surgical Basic Exam, the basic knowledge that is important for every surgical subject, i.e. the so-called "common trunk", is to be evaluated. Therefore, at least one year of clinical activity is required to register for the examination.

Only physicians with a federal or foreign doctor's diploma recognised by the FOPH are admitted to the basic examination (Art. 23 WBO). The transitional provisions are set out in Art. 69 para. 3 of the WBO.

Confirmation

Confirmation of registration will be sent by email once registration has been completed and payment received.

If you withdraw from the exam, there will be no refund. In case of withdrawal from the examination by 1 September 2023, CHF 100.- will be credited for the 2024 examination. The full registration amount remains due if notification of withdrawal is received after 1 September 2023 and in case of no show for the examination, irrespective of the reason.
