The Stuttgart Spine Center – Your Center of Excellence for Spinal Care
Back pain can stem from a wide range of causes, each requiring an individualized treatment approach. With so many potential therapies available, choosing the one that best suits your needs can be challenging. At our renowned Stuttgart Spine Center, we offer a comprehensive range of treatment methods, employing the latest state-of-the-art techniques and adhering to the principles of evidence-based medicine. We bring together orthopedic specialists, general surgeons, neurosurgeons, internists, intensive care physicians, pain therapists, oncologists, and many other disciplines. This interdisciplinary collaboration supports a holistic approach, enabling us to provide the highest standards of care to achieve the best possible outcomes for our patients.
Our expertise spans the treatment of spinal injuries and degenerative conditions, as well as tumor-related and congenital spinal disorders. As one of the few hospitals in Germany certified by both the German and European Spine Societies as a maximum-care Spine Center and Center of Excellence in all areas, we maintain the highest quality standards.
Every year, we treat approximately 10,000 outpatients and perform more than 2,100 spinal surgeries. This is making our clinic one of the leading spine surgery departments in Germany. Our dedicated team is fluent in English and proficient in multiple other languages, ensuring clear communication and world-class care for our international patients.
At the Diakonie-Klinikum Stuttgart’s Spine Center, we have extensive experience with both surgical and non-surgical (conservative) therapies. We fully explore all conservative options before considering surgery. Our goal is to restore our patients’ quality of life through innovative, minimally invasive, and highly personalized treatment strategies. Recognizing that spinal issues are often complex and multifaceted, we take a holistic view of each patient’s condition to develop the most effective therapy plan.
Our comprehensive treatment spectrum covers all types of spinal disorders, including herniated discs, spinal canal stenoses, and both degenerative and idiopathic scoliosis. We excel in managing traumatic injuries, degenerative diseases, congenital spinal conditions, as well as intradural and extradural spinal tumors.
Our experienced physicians leverage the latest medical technologies—such as high-resolution surgical microscopes, intraoperative 3D imaging, and computer navigation—to ensure precision in surgical interventions. Intraoperative neuromonitoring helps maintain optimal nerve function throughout procedures. These advanced, minimally invasive techniques minimize tissue damage and, when combined with appropriate physiotherapy, enable patients to regain mobility and well-being significantly more rapidly.
As one of Germany’s top spine surgery centers, we remain committed to providing outstanding, evidence-based, and patient-focused care. Our multilingual team, including English speakers, is dedicated to guiding you through every step of your treatment with expertise, compassion, and professionalism.
