Our Neurologists are trained in the treatment of disorders of the nervous system. The nervous system is a complex, sophisticated system that regulates and coordinates body activities. It has two major divisions:
- Central nervous system: the brain and spinal cord
- Peripheral nervous system: all other neural elements, such as eyes, ears, skin, and other “sensory receptors”
A doctor who specializes in neurology is called a neurologist. The neurologist treats disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, such as:
- Cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke
- Demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, such as multiple sclerosis
- Headache disorders
- Infections of the brain and peripheral nervous system
- Movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease
- Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease)
- Seizure disorders, such as epilepsy
- Spinal cord disorders
- Speech and language disorders
Neurologists do not perform surgery. If one of their patients requires surgery, they refer them to a neurosurgeon.
Orthopedic surgery or orthopedics, is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic surgeons use both surgical and nonsurgical means to treat musculoskeletal trauma, spine diseases, sports injuries, degenerative diseases, infections, tumors, and congenital disorders.
Pediatrics is the branch of medicine dealing with the health and medical care of infants, children, and adolescents from birth up to the age of 18.
What does a pediatrician do?
A paediatrician is a child’s physician who provides not only medical care for children who are acutely or chronically ill but also preventive health services for healthy children. A paediatrician manages physical, mental, and emotional well-being of the children under their care at every stage of development, in both sickness and health.
Aims of pediatrics:
The aim of paediatrics is to reduce infant and child rate of deaths, control the spread of infectious disease, promote healthy lifestyles for a long disease-free life and help ease the problems of children and adolescents with chronic conditions.
Paediatricians diagnose and treat several conditions among children including:
- Injuries
- Infections
- Genetic and Congenital Conditions
- Cancers
- Organ Diseases and Dysfunctions
Pediatrics is concerned not only about immediate management of the ill child but also long term effects on quality of life, disability and survival. Pediatricians are involved with the prevention, early detection, and management of problems including:
- Developmental Delays and Disorders
- Behavioral Problems
- Functional Disabilities
- Social Stresses
- Mental Disorders (including depression and anxiety disorders)
Pediatrics is a collaborative specialty. Pediatricians need to work closely with other medical specialists and healthcare professionals and subspecialists of pediatrics to help children with problems.

Internal Medicine Society of Australia and New Zealand – What is a general physician?
Psychiatry is a specialty of medicine that focuses on researching, understanding, diagnosing, and treating diseases of the brain and disorders of the mind and behavior. Psychiatrists diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, from Alzheimer’s disease, anxiety, and autism to mood disorders, Munchausen syndrome, psychosis, and suicidality. As physicians, psychiatrists are trained to recognize the many ways general physiologic processes and pathologies can influence mental functioning—and vice-versa.
Practitioners are physicians who typically work in or are affiliated with medical settings. Psychiatry also has a number of fields of sub-specialization; addiction psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, forensic psychiatry, geriatric psychiatry, and neuropsychiatry are the best known.
Stroke (also known as cerebrovascular disease) occurs when the supply of blood to the brain is suddenly disrupted. Arteries are blood tubes (vessels) that carry blood to the brain. Blockages caused by blood clots or plaques may stop blood moving through an artery. In other situations an artery may break or burst. These events cause damage to the brain, leading to symptoms of stroke.
Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIAs) are temporary or brief strokes that do not cause permanent damage. TIAs are warning signs that lead us to assess risk factors for stroke. Hospital Emergency Departments treat acute strokes and TIAs. Neurologists recommend expert care and prompt investigation for these conditions. Your doctor will suggest treatments to reduce the risk of developing further strokes into the future. This will follow a series of tests to evaluate the brain’s blood supply.
Risk Factors: These are factors that modify (increase) the risk of having a stroke,
- Increased Body Weight
- High Cholesterol
- Diabetes
- High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
- Family History
- Smoking
Treatment:
Improvement of Risk Factors should be the number one priority of patients with cerebrovascular disease. Diet modification, exercise, quitting smoking and management of blood pressure are all achievable goals.
Treatments decisions are made after the investigations have been completed so that the brain’s blood supply is optimized. Our doctors will prescribe a combination of treatments including medications to reduce the likelihood of further blood clots, and medications to improve the health of the blood vessels.
