Spinal surgery

As Head of Spinal Surgery, Dr Filippo Mandelli specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of the full spectrum of spinal conditions and injuries – with a particular focus on minimally invasive procedures such as endoscopic disc surgery (‘keyhole surgery’). Dr Mandelli heads the Dr Wälchli Spine Clinic in Zollikerberg, where Dr Beat Wälchli also works as a senior consultant, alongside Anthony Ghaffari, MD. The Prodorso Centre for Spinal Medicine complements this service with a branch in Zurich, which is also headed by Dr Mandelli. Dr Alexander Spiessberger, MD, is also affiliated with this branch as an attending consultant. At Zollikerberg Hospital, Dr Massimo Leonardi, Dr Christoph Weber and Dr Jürgen Klasen also carry out surgical procedures as affiliated doctors. The interdisciplinary service is complemented by specialist nursing staff and experienced nursing teams on the wards, ensuring comprehensive, high-quality care.
