When choosing a place for cancer treatment abroad, we recommend the largest university clinics in Germany, the citadels of the best technologies and experienced professionals.

A university clinic (Uniklinik) is a large medical institution that is connected to a medical faculty of a university.

These centers combine research, teaching, and clinical practice.

As a rule, university clinics have the latest equipment and use the best methods for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Here you can meet leading experts in many areas of medicine, which are often asked for a second opinion. In addition, fundamental research and clinical trials of new cancer treatments are conducted at university clinics in Germany.

A first institution of this kind was opened in 1717 in Halle by Johann Juncker.

His Collegium Clinicum was the forerunner of today's 35 university medical centers scattered throughout Germany.

We offer you a list of the largest university clinics in Germany, where you can find almost any kind of treatment. The decisive factor here was the number of beds, the corresponding number of employees and annually treated patients.
