Neurosurgery is concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of patients with injury, disease or disorders of the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves and extra-cranial cerebrovascular systems. Neurosurgical care includes both adult and pediatric patients.
Neurosurgeons are highly trained neurosurgical specialists who can help patients suffering from back and neck disorders, blood vessel abnormalities (such as stroke), brain aneurysms, tumors, head and spinal cord injuries, as well as a host of other neurological disorders and injuries.
Neurosurgeons are assisted by a caring staff of specialty nurses and nurse practitioners, each having special interest and experience in the health care needs of their patients.
