Our Advisors

Dr. med. Kathrin Kern
Gynecologist at Menopausenzentrum
I enjoy supporting people, especially women. As a gynecologist, I can optimally combine my interest in medicine and science with my joy in working with people. Individual attention to the wishes and needs of our patients and quality assurance are particularly important to me. Continuous training ensures that my specialist knowledge is always up to date.
My medical studies form the foundation for my career as a gynecologist. Since obtaining my specialist qualification in 1998, I have gained extensive experience in gynecology and obstetrics in various positions, practices, and hospitals. I have run my own gynecological practice since 2001.

Dr. med. Alina Staicov
Gynecologist at gynpoint
Dr. Alina Staikov founded gynpoint with one clear vision: to create a space where women feel understood medically and emotionally.
At gynpoint, women find the full spectrum of modern gynecology under one roof. With locations in Zurich and Horgen, Alina and her team support women through every life stage with empathy, expertise and time.
Her approach goes beyond treatment. It’s about building trust, listening carefully and shaping care around each woman’s individual needs.
Her goal is to ensure that every woman feels seen, supported, and safe. Especially during midlife transitions.
For her, gynecology isn’t just medicine — it’s partnership.
