University Medical Center Freiburg

University Medical Center Freiburg combines hospital treatment, medical education and research. Its Comprehensive Cancer Center connects clinical oncology with laboratory work and early-phase studies, while the wider institution provides medical and surgical care for adults and children.

The institution's facts-and-figures page explicitly connects patient treatment, medical teaching and research. It distinguishes medical and nursing staff and reports inpatient activity separately from ambulatory visits. The same source identifies surgical activity, births, transplant work and average length of stay as different indicators of hospital operation. These measures describe different clinical functions rather than interchangeable counts of patients.

The current institutional account reports transplant activity involving corneas, stem cells, kidneys, lungs and the pancreas. This is a stated area of hospital work and is not converted into a claim that every kind of transplantation is suitable or available for every referral. The published numbers remain attached to the source's reporting scope and do not describe the availability of a particular organ, donor program or inpatient place.

The 2024 annual report documents a new children's and adolescent medicine building, handed over to the medical center in September of that year. It also reports its own clinical, workforce and research-funding indicators. The broader institutional overview and the statutory quality report use different organizational boundaries, so the bed and staffing figures from those documents are not treated as identical measurements.

Freiburg's Comprehensive Cancer Center describes a research structure connecting laboratory findings with clinical investigation. A central clinical-trials unit and early-phase units for adults and children are identified in its research information. These units help organize the evaluation of new oncology approaches within a defined research setting, alongside the institution's established clinical departments.

The university medical center also publishes dedicated information on anesthesia and intensive medicine. This establishes critical-care support as part of the clinical organization, rather than leaving its presence to be inferred from the hospital's size. Professional nursing education is documented in the statutory quality material. Together, the hospital's own reports describe a multidisciplinary teaching institution with adult and pediatric services, operative and transplant activity, critical care and an organized cancer-research infrastructure.

The institution reports the following clinical and infrastructure information: outpatient care: Yes; inpatient beds: 2,210 (Current institutional facts page.); doctors: ≈2,000; intensive care / resuscitation: Yes. The scope and reporting period remain those of the linked institutional sources.

Freiburg’s Comprehensive Cancer Center describes research that connects laboratory findings and clinical trials. Clinical trial support includes a central trials unit and early clinical trial units for adults and children, helping organize the evaluation of new approaches in oncology.
