When Skandionkliniken was built, the ambition was to create an environment unlike traditional healthcare facilities—where architecture, art, color, and light work together to create calm and provide energy. This vision was based on the motto that environment and health are linked. In the same building, you’ll find Hotel von Kraemer, where many patients stay for several weeks while undergoing proton beam therapy. Your guide is Bibbi Good, who received treatment at the clinic in 2020.
