About Friedrich Douwes
FRIEDRICH DOUWES, M.D. was born in Germany and received his M.D. Degree from the University of Marburg, Zurich, Heidelberg in 1962. He then went to the United States and completed his Internship at Philadelphia General Hospital in 1967 and a Fellowship in Hematology & Oncology from Hahnemann University, also located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1970.
Returning to Germany, Dr. Douwes spent the next 10 years as Senior Physician in the Oncology Department of University Hospital of Gottengun. He published several articles pertaining to biological and immunological problems of tumors.
Not satisfied with the clinical results attained as an Orthodox Oncologist, he began to integrate Alternative Methods into his daily work. In 1980, as the Medical Director of Sonneburg Hospital in Bad Sooden-Allendorf, one of the largest cancer centers in Germany, he founded one of the first self-help groups and first Psych-Oncological Department.
Between 1981 and 1987, Dr. Douwes developed his integrative cancer concept, combining conventional and complementary cancer therapies. In 1991, he founded St. George Hospital in Bad Aibling, Germany. St. George offers Hyperthermia, Immuno-Therapy and Electro-Therapy in its Oncology Department, and they also have a Lyme Disease Center.
Over 5,000 cancer patients from all over the world have received treatment at St. George Hospital. Many receive remarkable results in all types of advanced cancers.

Transcription
Thank you for this introduction, and I would like to thank Lorraine Rosenthal also for the invitation, and I am happy to be here. As Frank told already, I am a trained conventional oncologist and I practice conventional oncology for 10, 15 years.
And then I decided to at least go a little further and adopt conventional complementary medicine into our concept of recorded integrative cancer therapy concept. Most of the things you have heard are part of this integrative cancer therapy concept.
But I want to show you today a few techniques which are used very frequently in our hospital and very frequently in Germany and not available to this extent in this country.
St George Hospital is a 100 bed hospital, 100 beds for inpatients. It has a contract with all major insurances. That means it's fully integrated into the medical system of the Federal Republic and Germany. This is easy for German patient.
Every patient can come to this hospital. If a family doctor says, you know, I know I don't want to have you treated in the university ask, but I want to have you treated in.
But I bring me the spa in the St George Hospital. Then you can send the patient to this hospital. It's a normal hospital, has had the 60 employees and 16 physicians with different subspecialties. It means we have all kinds of of subspecialty from gynecologist to urologist. We treat two thousand five hundred inpatients per year and two thousand five hundred outpatient per year.
That means 5000 and sincere.
We found it.
So just five years ago, we have treated more than 60 cancer patients. So the place is small on the map, but big for cancer patient.
We choose to send George as our symbol because this shows the best what we are doing, fighting the bad and doing the good at the same time. You may ask ways, but I believe located it is halfway between Munich and size will give, you know, a little bit about the the geography of Germany, Munich on one side and sizable on the other side.
And it's located in the most beautiful part of Germany, the Bavarian OBES, as you know. And everybody commented on this.
We have a very sad situation in the development of oncology. We have rising figures of of cancer patients each year.
And not only the incidence goes up, that means we get more cancer patients.
The death rate goes up. And if you ask, you know, what happened to the five year survival time in the conventional oncology, then I have to admit practically, practically nothing. Maybe a two percent gain. And if
