Which are the best Rehab Clinics for Lung Cancer in Germany? Some excellent hospitals are listed here.
Lung cancer is treated – depending on the severity of the illness – either with surgery or in combination with chemo- and radiotherapy. After the treatment at the hospital, the patient stays at a rehabilitation clinic. There, the patient will be prepared physically as well as mentally for the reintegration into everyday life.
Rehab clinics do not only offer physical measures such as sports or physiotherapy, but also psychic support or for example nutrition counseling. All of the clinics mentioned below are especially suitable for patients with lung cancer or who have overcome lung cancer, because this area is one of the clinic’s focuses. The clinics are ranked by size.

This is how the Rehab Clinic list was created:
- Focus Award! Every year, the big German weekly magazine DER FOCUS awards the best rehab clinics. All of the hospitals listed are specialized in lung cancer according to the Rehab Clinic List 2020.
- Certificates! Stationary rehab clinics are obliged to obtain a certification. All hospitals listed above possess a certificate from an official organization, for example from the Deutsche Rentenversicherung Bund (German state pension scheme, QMS Reha) or from TÜV Nord or TÜV Süd (system QM).
- Comprehensive Help! Especially for rehabilitation, it is important that experts from different areas take care of the patient, for example occupational therapists, physiotherapists and sports therapists. All of the Clinics listed above have interdisciplinary teams with experts from at least five specialist areas.
- Accompanying Person! For many people, it is important to have a close relative or friend with them after a serious surgery. Therefore, only rehab clinics which allow patients to bring an accompanying person are listed.
