Physiatrists are the professionals who use a variety of techniques such as medications, modalities, injections, prosthetics/orthotics, therapeutic exercise, adaptive devices, and cognitive therapy to treat patients of all ages. Physiatrists promote physiologic adjustment to disability to prevent complications or degeneration secondary to disabling diseases. The goal of the physiatrist is to give medical care to patients with numbness, pain, spasticity, weakness, loss of function, and complete loss of muscle tone (flaccidity) so that they can improve quality of life emotionally, physically, vocationally and psychosocially. Physiatrists may use musculoskeletal ultrasound and electro diagnostics to help aid in the diagnosis of complex neurologic or musculoskeletal injuries.
A surgeon is a physician who does surgical operations. There are also surgeons in disorders of the foot, ankle and lower extremity (podiatry), dentistry and the veterinary fields. Surgeons act directly to correct deformities, illnesses, and injuries. Surgeons perform duties like recording patients medical histories and diagnosing injuries, illnesses, and other conditions. General surgeons operate on any part of the body. Various surgeons specialize, though, either on diseases like cancer or on one part of the body.
