Founded in 1991 by Dr. med. Friedrich Douwes, the hospital has treated patients from over 90 countries, focusing on complex chronic illnesses such as Lyme disease, co-infections, cancer, and Post-COVID syndrome. Our individualized therapies bridge the best of conventional science and holistic care, setting new standards in patient-centered healing.
At St. George Hospital, our mission is to identify and treat the true underlying causes of disease — not just manage symptoms. We empower patients through medical precision, biological therapies, and compassionate care. Every treatment plan is as individual as the person receiving it. Our goal is to restore long-term health, resilience, and vitality.
We envision a future where integrative medicine is not an alternative, but the standard. A world in which modern diagnostics, biological therapies, immune support, and patient education are combined to offer sustainable healing, especially in the face of rising chronic illness.
This serendipitous event led to years of research, confirming that Borrelia (Lyme bacteria) are thermolabile — sensitive to heat. This spirit of observation, innovation, and clinical courage remains central to our philosophy.
