Dr. Rudiger Stendel

Dr Rudiger Stendel is a consultant neurosurgeon at Mediclinic Parkview Hospital with over 30 years of clinical experience. Trained in Germany at the Free University of Berlin and later at the prestigious Charité – University Medicine Berlin, he has built an international career combining advanced surgical practice with research. He has worked across the USA, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Saudi Arabia, bringing diverse expertise to his current practice in Dubai.

Dr Stendel specialises in complex brain and spine tumours in both adults and children, minimally invasive keyhole surgery for brain and spine conditions, and interventional pain management techniques. He is particularly skilled in skull base surgery—delicate procedures on tumours located at the base of the skull. His approach emphasises using the least invasive techniques available to reduce recovery time and patient trauma.

He holds fellowship status with the American Association of Neurological Surgeons and is an active member of the European and German Neurosurgical Societies. Fluent in English and German, Dr Stendel is a good fit for patients seeking complex neurosurgical care with a focus on minimally invasive approaches and for those requiring treatment of brain or spine tumours in both adult and paediatric populations.
