"Unbelievable attitudes from a couple staff at this place of business! One nurse practitioner was so loud and disrespectful that I had a hard time being in the room with her. When I asked for the help of another employee everything was good again and I was calm. THEN, the Co-ordinating supervisor came into the room and made it all worse. She believed that I was rude to the nurse (aren’t we as patients having just gone through major surgery able to have some grace) so she was hostile until I left to sit outside rather than dealing with any more stress. Thank God my driver arrived shortly and was another person of color. Being a little old white lady I am certainly grateful that I was taken care of by these two extraordinary young women today. The doctor was good but I’ll never go there again. "

What is Neurosurgery?

Neurosurgery is the highly skilled specialty devoted to the surgical treatment of issues affecting the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is similar to the specialty of neurology, which also treats disorders of the nervous system. Even though there is some overlap, neurosurgery focuses on the surgical treatment of nervous system disorders. However, not every neurosurgery job means surgery -- neurosurgeons may also provide a diagnosis, interpret imaging and test results, or provide non-surgical treatment, depending on the nature of the illness.

Neurosurgeons treat nervous system disorders such as:

Traumatic brain injuries
Brain or spine tumors
Blood clots in the brain
Hydroencephalitis
Aneurysms or stroke
Seizures
Spinal cord injuries
Carpal or cubital tunnel syndromes
Repair of severed nerves
Infections of the brain or spinal fluid

Because the nervous system is both so delicate and so complex, neurosurgery has one of the most rigorous and competitive medical education programs. After college and medical school, it is common for a neurosurgeon to require 7-10 additional years of intense training.

New discoveries in this field allow neurosurgeons to heal and accomplish more than ever before, and they are now able to treat many injuries and illnesses that were once fatal.
