Biography

Ehud Mendel, MD, MBA, is a neurosurgeon and director of the Spine Oncology Program at Smilow Cancer Hospital’s Disease Center. A renowned leader in spinal surgery procedures, Dr. Mendel removes spinal tumors and has spearheaded research in reconstructive surgery following tumor removal.

With areas of specialty including spinal cancer, spine sarcoma, and spinal cord tumors, he has built specific protocols for removal of spinal cord tumors. The entire tumor must be removed, or cancer cells invade other parts of a patient’s body.

Dr. Mendel’s research includes examination of the characteristics of osteoblastomas(a rare, noncancerous bone tumor), the physics of lower back disorders, and the use of radiosurgery, MRIs, and other surgical tools.

Additionally, Dr. Mendel is division chief of the Spine Surgery Program and the executive vice chair in the Yale School of Medicine Department of Neurosurgery.
