This distinction for prostate cancer is important—it is a common cancer, and it is usually treated by a urologist, not an oncologist or another type of surgeon. (more information)

NEUROSURGERY: Neurosurgeons operate on the brain and spinal cord. They remove brain tumors, but they also perform low back and neck surgery for chronic back pain and pinched nerves. (more information)

ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY: Orthopedic Surgeons are bone and joint doctors. They can perform surgery for bone fractures and torn ligaments in joints, but they also provide much care in their offices with casting, slings and joint injections. (more information)
