Dr. Viktor Zsolt Kővári is a chief neurosurgeon at the St. George University Teaching Hospital in Fejér County, with a primary focus on spine surgery. 

During his medical training, he studied abroad in several countries—including the United States, Norway, and Germany—supported by prestigious scholarships. He began his medical career at the National Institute of Neuroscience (OITI), followed by the Hungarian Defence Forces Medical Center, where he was among the first in Hungary to adopt the then-novel minimally invasive spinal stabilization techniques. He has remained actively involved in the promotion and teaching of these methods ever since. He had the opportunity to train under Dr. Róbert Veres, PhD, an honorary university professor and a leading figure in Hungarian spine surgery, as well as Dr. K. Daniel Riew, a world-renowned cervical spine specialist at the Daniel and Jane Och Spine Hospital in New York.   Remarkably, he was entrusted with performing complex spine surgeries shortly after completing his board certification, enabling him to gain outstanding surgical experience early in his career.

In treating spinal conditions such as disc herniation, spinal canal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, spinal tumors, and fractures, he considers surgical intervention a last resort. Whenever there is a realistic chance of avoiding surgery, he prioritizes conservative treatment options.

Professionally, he places great emphasis on continuous development, mastering new techniques, precision, and responsibility. He strives to ensure that every patient leaves the consultation fully understanding their condition and the proposed treatment options. In the physician–patient relationship, honesty and transparency are of utmost importance to him. He also believes in involving patients in decision-making, treating them as partners in addressing their health challenges.
His goal is to provide each patient with the most optimal, individualized therapeutic plan and, when necessary, the most appropriate surgical intervention.
