Prof. Dr. Joachim Drevs stands for modern, integrative cancer therapy that focuses on the individual as a whole. His career is characterized by international cutting-edge medicine. Prof. Drevs combines conventional medicine and research with alternative therapies. A look at his extraordinary path:
University of Göttingen
Prof. Drevs studied human medicine at the tradition-steeped University of Göttingen, known for its medical excellence. He was already involved in ethics committees during his studies and first came into contact with naturopathic oncology at the Bircher-Benner Clinic in Braunwald (Switzerland).
USA - High-tech Medicine
At Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, one of the largest and oldest hospitals in the United States, Prof. Drevs learned about modern oncology at the highest medical level from luminaries such as Prof. Jim Holland, the pioneer of combination chemotherapy.
South Africa - Medicine without Devices
He worked in gynecological oncology and obstetrics at Ga-Rankuwa Hospital, now Dr. George Mukhari Hospital, north of Pretoria (South Africa). During the apartheid era, this hospital was one of the few facilities that provided medical care to the non-white population, particularly in the townships. He trained his clinical intuition here, largely without diagnostic equipment: seeing, hearing, feeling, understanding.
Freiburg
Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Gerd Nagel (former President of the German Cancer Society and former Chairman of the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg), Prof. Drevs worked at the interface of university oncology and integrative medicine. He combined classical cancer medicine with innovative methods and supervised numerous research projects - including early studies on angiogenesis blockers (tumor vascular therapies).
Tumor Clinic SanaFontis
With a private investor, Prof. Drevs founded a clinic for integrative oncology with associated pharmaceutical development. In 19 international studies – including in Japan, Russia, Senegal and Germany – therapies such as mRNA-based immune procedures were tested.
Tübingen & Sickte
He helped set up one of the first university rehabilitation facilities for oncology and established his own practice for integrative cancer therapy at the same time.
This practice – Unifontis – became a point of contact for patients from all over Germany and beyond.
Today: Unifontis – Integrative oncology with heart and mind
Prof. Dr. Drevs combines in-depth, academic medical knowledge with a strong focus on cancer therapy. Drevs combines in-depth conventional medical knowledge with a broad spectrum of innovative therapies, individually tailored to each person.
His work is based on a simple but profound conviction:
"Cancer treatment must be as individual as the person themselves."
Prof. Dr. med. Joachim Drevs is a specialist in internal medicine, long-standing university lecturer (adjunct professor at Freiburg University Hospital) and internationally networked expert in integrative cancer therapy. In the Unifontis practice, he accompanies patients on the path to a better quality of life, stability and health with scientific clarity and human closeness.
Prof. Dr. Joachim Drevs has published numerous scientific papers on modern oncology, with a focus on angiogenesis research (blood vessel growth in tumors) and the development of innovative cancer therapies. His publications are documented on the international research platform PubMed, highlighting his long-standing commitment to clinical research.
