Dr Andile Mbatha

Dr Andile Mbatha Neurosurgery provides expert neurosurgical and spine care from its private practice based in Claremont, Cape Town. Led by Dr Andile Mbatha, a specialist neurosurgeon and spine surgeon with extensive training and international experience, the practice delivers comprehensive diagnostic, surgical and post‑operative services for a wide range of neurological and spinal conditions. Dr Mbatha completed his undergraduate medical degree and advanced neurosurgical training at top South African institutions, followed by a specialised fellowship in orthopaedic spinal surgery. This combined expertise enables him to treat both complex cranial and spinal disorders with a high level of proficiency and precision. His clinical approach is grounded in evidence‑based practice, meticulous surgical planning and a deep commitment to patient outcomes. The practice manages conditions such as brain tumours and trauma, degenerative spine disease, spinal fractures, spine infections and other cranial and spinal pathologies. Services include spinal decompression and fusion surgery, cervical disc replacement, trauma surgery, pain‑relieving spine injections, and comprehensive pre‑ and post‑operative care. Advanced surgical technologies and techniques, including minimally invasive and keyhole approaches, are used where appropriate to enhance recovery and reduce surgical impact. From the initial consultation through to treatment planning and follow‑up care, patients receive personalised attention with clear explanations of diagnosis, treatment options, risks and expected outcomes. The practice team works closely with medical aids and hospitals, including Life Kingsbury Medical Suites where procedures are performed in a modern laminar‑flow theatre.
