Patient feedback
I first went to Dr Meier in 2019 because of a tibia fracture and a fibula fracture. She immediately gave me lots of tips about what I should do every day (gave me a Theraband and several bandages for everyday sporting activities). Afterwards Dr Meier also organised Compex therapy for me. At every check-up she not only checks whether the bones have healed together, but she also looks very, very closely at what I need to watch out for when doing sport and which exercises I still need to integrate into my regular training.
In January 2021 I tore my cruciate ligament; in August I was planning to do a 360km trail run. Dr Meier immediately referred me to a sports clinic and I was operated on there straight away. After the operation she continually asked about the physio progress, etc. Shortly before the race I saw her, and she showed me which exercises I should do daily up to the race and also gave me tips on taping! Even during the race she kept giving me tips in different situations ;-)
I have to say a heartfelt thank you ;-) Dr Meier saved my right leg twice, and not even seven months after the cruciate ligament surgery I ran 360km in one go. Thank you ;-)
I would definitely recommend her ;-) She cares for athletes, thinks like an athlete, and does not just say take a two-month break and everything will be fine, but she really looks at what you can actively do to speed things up ;-))
Thank you!!!!

Dr. Rosetta Meier is an outstanding doctor. Very competent and holistic. She continually pursues further training and, despite her high level of professionalism, is always very personable. A practice I would highly recommend.
Beatrice Stirnimann
I had always been looking for a female doctor whom I, as a critical nursing professional, could trust.
Dr M., with her clear view of the whole person and her expert knowledge, immediately convinced me.
Light-filled practice, arranging appointments was straightforward and quick. Wonderful!
Necessary diagnostics were arranged straight away, and in the open conversation I felt understood and was encouraged to self-reflect.
I can highly recommend Dr M. to everyone …
Many thanks for the good support

After moving house we looked for a new practice within the family doctor model and found perfect care at "Health & Motion". After the friendly greeting you take a seat in the waiting room. A water dispenser is as much a matter of course here as the information material on selected topics, for example what everyone can do to stay fit and healthy – Health & Motion, after all. There isn’t much time to read, though, as you’re seen almost straight away.
In a friendly and relaxed atmosphere Dr Meier asks about your current complaints. From understanding the problem, through treatment, to final advice – medical competence all the way! Her experience gives us, on every visit, the secure feeling of being in professional hands. Her tips on a healthy lifestyle are particularly valuable. Dr Meier doesn’t wag a finger at you; instead she vividly explains what happens in and to our bodies if we persist with unhealthy habits.
Health & Motion, indeed – the name says it all!
Thank you very much, Dr Meier

I would like to thank Dr Meier for the excellent primary care. All my health problems are taken seriously. My heel spur was successfully treated with shockwave therapy - pain-free! Competent medical support during my weight loss.
Thank you for the many tips regarding nutrition and physical activity, which have led to an improvement in my physical well-being.

With one medication!!
In the end I developed medication-overuse headaches and had to go into a detox clinic twice within 10 years. A calcium channel blocker (blood-pressure medication) that widens the blood vessels did the trick. Even though I had devoured at least four books about magnesium and vasodilation, two other doctors I had seen before didn’t think of it either. Unimaginable…
For the past two months I’ve been a different person — 'normal', that is — I can plan the time ahead of me and decide what I want to do!
I hadn’t been able to do that for 15 years!
I’m looking forward to the future

Dr. Meier is very professional, knowledgeable and easy to talk to (even in English). She takes plenty of time with each of her patients. I can also warmly recommend Dr. Meier to English-speaking expats.
Chris Wycoff
There is always a thorough discussion about the treatment. Her tenacity in investigating the cause is admirable. She takes the time to listen and patiently explains medical terms. She will always squeeze in a short-notice consultation, depending on the urgency. Tip-top!
Ingrid Oesterlin
I find that Dr Rosetta Meier takes time for her patients; she is currently running the practice single-handedly and I find it admirable that someone handles telephone calls, coordinates appointments and is still fully focused when it comes to advice, explanations or patient information.
This responsibility and the extra workload are back-breaking, and I'm glad there are people who practise this profession; they deserve far more praise than the average footballer who merely runs after a ball. Whether in nursing or as a doctor, my thanks and keep up the good work.

Ms Meier treated my tennis elbow with dry needling. After 2 treatments I am nearly pain-free. Now I am curious whether this has been sufficient, or whether another treatment will be necessary.
Jeanette Gemperle
I have been seeing Dr Meier for some time now. Alongside her solid professional expertise, it is important to me to get an appointment promptly & not then have to spend a long time in the waiting room. I can gladly confirm that this has always worked out very well. I have always felt well looked after. In my view the clinical competence is sound. I would definitely recommend the general practice as well as the sports medicine department!
Stefan Bacher
Thanks to this, my seriously ill father will be able to pass away peacefully and with dignity, free from pain.
Martin Plattner
I was treated excellently with taping for a torn tendon in my right thigh. I feel very much taken seriously and my concerns are very well attended to.
M. Schmidlin
Ms Meier takes time for her patients. She sees the whole person and their personality. You can have diagnostic tests carried out at her practice and do not have to go from specialist to specialist. There are no long waiting times to get an appointment. I can recommend Ms Meier at any time.
Andrea Krentel
I will change my GP; he really convinced me
Reto Grossmann
I feel very well looked after by Dr Meier. She combines solid expertise with a friendly manner. In the consultation she ensures the necessary framework so that my concerns/questions/complaints are at the centre. She is well connected and even then gives me the reassurance that, should I be referred to a specialist, I will once again be cared for by competent professionals.
Muriel Dietiker
My wife is a fitness instructor and has been seeing Dr Rosetta Meier for some time. Due to an emergency I was there the last time and was able to see the practice and speak with Dr Meier. She made a very professional and competent impression on me. Modern practice and an excellent female doctor — I can highly recommend her.
Kurt Moser
Ich habe Dr.med. Rosetta Meier als sehr freundliche und kompetente Person erlebt. Sie untersucht gründlich und ihr ist daran gelegen, die Ursache für das jeweilige Leiden zu finden. Auch die Aufklärung empfand ich als angemessenen und ausführlich. Bei Ihr fühlte ich mich In den besten Händen und hatte direkt Vertrauen zu ihr. Ich kann sie als Hausärztin absolut empfehlen, denn sie nimmt sich wirklich Zeit für Ihre Patienten.
Gerd Frese
I visited Dr. med. Rosetta Meier's GP practice for the first time and was impressed by the prompt and competent medical care. She examined me thoroughly and also gave dietary advice to help improve my symptoms.
I would like to thank her once again, especially for being the only doctor so far to recognise the heart valve defect in my son. Thanks to her help he has since undergone surgery and his life was saved. He is doing well again now.
Many thanks, Dr Meier
Maria Frese
Competent doctor with a digital X-ray machine, a laboratory and medication dispensing in the practice. After a sporting accident I received excellent care from Dr Rosetta Meier. Thanks to a digital X-ray machine she was able to analyse the injury straight away, and the practice's pharmacy also had a brace available straight away.
I am very satisfied with Dr Meier and will recommend her.
Erwin Schäfer
Great GP practice, very pleasant ambience with coffee, fruit, and a wide selection of magazines in the waiting room, short waiting times, a professional and very likeable female GP who takes plenty of time and explains everything clearly and comprehensively.
An exceptionally versatile GP practice!!!
Johanna Giese
This practice is very professional and always flexible, even able to get an appointment at short notice. Dr. Meier is an excellent doctor with a wide range of experience (speaks English well) and arranges all necessary examinations and treatments exceptionally well every time. I
I can warmly recommend Health and Motion to anyone looking for a good, reliable doctor in Liestal.
Anissa
Without an appointment I was examined immediately after another patient. Lab tests, X-ray, etc. Dr Meier put my fears at ease. Quick, straightforward and helpful. Highly recommended.
