Rosenfluh

Rosenfluh Publikationen AG is a Swiss publishing house specialising in medical trade journals, headquartered in Neuhausen am Rheinfall. It was founded at the end of 1994 as a GmbH by Richard Altorfer and converted into an Aktiengesellschaft in 2002. In 2024 the publisher was acquired by Somedia Health AG, a joint venture between the media company Somedia and the entrepreneur Niklaus Leemann. The company's flagship title is Ars Medici, a Swiss journal for general practice medicine that has supplied general practitioners with information for over 100 years. It appears 12 times a year with a circulation of 10,000 copies. The portfolio also includes several other specialist journals: Schweizer Zeitschrift für Gynäkologie (official organ of the Swiss working group for child and adolescent gynaecology, GYNEA), Pädiatrie, Schweizer Zeitschrift für Psychiatrie & Neurologie, Schweizer Zeitschrift für Ernährungsmedizin, medicos, Schweizer Zeitschrift für Onkologie, DoXMedical and Sprechstunde. A journal for dermatology and aesthetic medicine covers dermatology, dermatopharmacy, dermatocosmetics, allergology and venereology, and appears four times a year with a circulation of about 3,500 copies. Rosenfluh's publications serve German-speaking Swiss physicians and healthcare professionals, combining peer-reviewed articles, congress reports, interviews and certified continuing medical education. The publisher also offers supplements and series such as Ars Medici Dossier, Ars Medici thema Phytotherapie and Sonderreport. Its editorial operations are supported by scientific advisory boards and editorial teams for each title.

Rosenfluh Publikationen AG was founded at the end of 1994 as a GmbH by Richard Altorfer, with its registered office in Neuhausen am Rheinfall, Switzerland. In 2002 the company was converted into an Aktiengesellschaft (stock corporation). The publisher built a portfolio of German-language medical trade journals aimed at Swiss physicians, with Ars Medici as its flagship title for general practice medicine. Over the years the list expanded to include journals in gynaecology, paediatrics, psychiatry and neurology, nutritional medicine, oncology, dermatology and aesthetic medicine, as well as titles such as medicos, DoXMedical and Sprechstunde. In 2024 the publisher was acquired by Somedia Health AG, a joint venture between the media company Somedia and the entrepreneur Niklaus Leemann. The acquisition brought Rosenfluh into the Somedia group, while its editorial operations and specialist titles continued under the new ownership.
