What Do Neurological Surgeons Do?
Neurological surgeons are medical professionals who diagnose, treat, consult, and operate on patients with various neurological diseases and disorders. Many surgeons have a broad knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the human central and automatic nervous systems, and are capable of performing a number of invasive and noninvasive procedures. Some professionals specialize by treating specific brain disorders or cancers. Neurological surgeons must undergo several years of medical school and practical training before practicing independently in a hospital, surgical center, or private practice.
