Christian Hospital Welcomes Kumar Vasudevan, MD

Christian Hospital welcomes fellowship-trained, board-certified Washington University neurosurgeon Kumar Vasudevan, MD, to full-time practice at Christian Hospital.

Dr. Vasudevan earned his undergraduate and medical degrees at Brown University in Providence, RI. He completed his neurosurgery residency and neurocritical care fellowship at Emory School of Medicine in Atlanta, GA, and a fellowship in skull base neuro-oncology at Harvard Medical School in Boston. Dr. Vasudevan provides state-of-the-art brain and spine care focusing on the latest multidisciplinary treatments to restore and maintain a patient’s quality of life.

Dr. Vasudevan’s interest in neurosurgery began as a child after witnessing his grandmother’s struggle against a severe brain tumor. The kindness and skill his grandmother’s neurosurgeon showed their family through every step of the process laid the groundwork for his modern, compassionate care.

When treating his patients, he holds to three pillars: honesty, collaboration, and diligence. He believes he is a doctor first and a surgeon second, meaning he considers all diagnoses and treatment options, both surgical and non-surgical, for each patient. He prides himself on excellent communication with patients, their families, and their providers. He previously was in practice in Atlanta, GA, where his clinician peers selected him as one of Atlanta’s Top Doctors for 2023.

Dr. Vasudevan welcomes new patients for both brain and spine care. To schedule an appointment or to learn more about the conditions he treats, please call 314-953-8340. His office is on the Christian Hospital campus, Medical Office Building #1, Suite 100.
