It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Dr Ralf Wagner, a beloved colleague, educator, and surgeon.
As a distinguished faculty member in our EduWeek modules for endoscopy, Dr Wagner shared not only his deep expertise in spinal surgery but also his remarkable gift for teaching. He was widely respected for advancing endoscopic techniques and generously contributed his time and knowledge to train and inspire surgeons across Europe and beyond.
Beyond his professional excellence, Dr Wagner will be remembered for his warmth, kindness, and dedication to his colleagues and students. He created a welcoming environment for learning, and his mentorship left a profound impact on those fortunate enough to work alongside him.
On behalf of EUROSPINE, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Dr Wagner’s family, friends, and colleagues. His legacy will live on through the many lives he touched and the lasting contributions he made to the spine community.
He will be deeply missed.
