Dr. med. Christoph Weber completed his specialist training in neurosurgery at the University Hospital of Cologne, followed by eight years as a senior physician at Winterthur Cantonal Hospital, one of Switzerland's most prestigious clinics for neurosurgery and spinal surgery. In his practice in Zurich, he offers not only classic spinal surgery but also specialized treatments in the field of radiosurgery, which he performs in close cooperation with the Swiss Neuro Radiosurgery Center (SNRC). Particularly noteworthy is his work with the ZAP-X device - the first of its kind in Switzerland - which enables high-precision, outpatient radiotherapy for brain tumors. This technology is used for benign and malignant tumors such as meningiomas, acoustic neuromas and pituitary adenomas and is also suitable for the treatment of metastatic brain tumors, gliomas and neurovascular diseases such as arteriovenous malformations. The treatment is painless and is performed in a single session, which is a great relief for patients and is characterized by high efficacy with minimal side effects.
For patients with back and spinal disorders, Dr. Weber offers comprehensive diagnostics as well as various surgical and minimally invasive treatment options. His specialties include herniated discs, spinal canal stenosis and spinal stabilization surgery, even in complex cases such as tumors or degenerative instabilities of the spine. Thanks to his microsurgical and minimally invasive technique, he is able to reduce the strain on the patient and shorten the recovery time. If necessary, Dr. Weber also performs shunt operations to treat neurosurgical conditions.
In addition to his work at the practice, Dr. Weber works as an attending physician at various renowned clinics in Zurich and the surrounding area, including the Zollikerberg Hospital, the Hirslanden Klinik im Park and the Winterthur Cantonal Hospital. His patients thus benefit from a broad network of medical facilities and experts, which enables optimal care at the highest level. Dr. Weber is also available to his patients for online consultations, so that second opinions or follow-up consultations can be carried out conveniently via webcam. Dr. Weber's commitment to the medical community is reflected in his membership of numerous international and national professional societies, such as the Swiss Society of Neurosurgery and the Spine Society of Europe. His work is based on the highest standards of modern neurosurgery and spinal surgery, which makes him a respected contact for patients and specialist colleagues alike. With a patient-oriented approach and a wide range of state-of-the-art treatment options, Dr. Christoph Weber is an outstanding specialist in neurosurgery, spine surgery and radiosurgery in Switzerland. His comprehensive expertise and holistic approach offer patients the best chance of successful treatment and sustainable quality of life.
