History

Five shareholders founded AGEN Holding SA in 2002 by taking over Clinique de Genolier, which had been operating in the Vaud municipality of the same name since 1972. In the years that followed, new clinics were continuously integrated into the group in order to create a national network of private healthcare institutions. In 2003, they integrated the Clinique de Montchoisi in Lausanne, VD, which had been founded in 1923. The Clinique Valmont in Glion ob Montreux, VD, founded by Henri-Auguste Widmer in 1905, and the Sainte-Anne and Garcia clinics in Fribourg were integrated in 2005 (the merger of the latter two ultimately resulted in the Clinique Générale Ste-Anne). In 2007, the Centre d'oncologie in Geneva, the only private centre for radio-oncology in the city, was opened.

AGEN Holding changed its name to Genolier Swiss Medical Network SA in 2008 and integrated the Centre médico-chirurgical des Eaux-Vives in Geneva the following year and Privatklinik Bethanien in Zurich, founded in 1912, in 2010.
