What is the Difference Between a Neurologist and a Neurosurgeon?
Both specialties diagnose and treat conditions of the nervous system, often collaborating to determine if surgical intervention is the most appropriate treatment option.
- Neurologists may treat conditions such as epilepsy, migraines, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease, and seizures.
- Neurosurgeons may discuss surgical options with you.
While both neurologists and neurosurgeons focus on the same organ, neurologists typically use non-operative methods, including medications, whereas neurosurgeons manage medical conditions and perform surgery when necessary.
