Stroke docs: neurosurgeons, INRs, int. neurologists

[deleted263296]

Could anyone discuss differences among these three specialists when it comes to treating cerebrovascular disorders? I'm interested in things like dynamics among the professionals, training differences (imaging, procedures), hiring prejudices, etc.

So you would like us to explain a residency (+/- fellowship) worth of diagnosis and treatment options and their subtleties, of fields that take years of intense training to master, in a couple of lines on an online forum? And, Just for good measure, throw in complex psychosociological and economic considerations into the discussion just for good measure?

Good luck.

Try a focused question and you are more likely to get an answer, while possibly sparking the discussion you would like.

Thanks for your thoughts. I guess next time I'll ask a question about big egos, money, or hot women in neurosurgery and I'll get a decent response.

Maybe your question wasn't too clear. Keep in mind that both neurosurgeons and neurologists can train as INRs. When they train as INR, then their work is very similar.

I agree with gonogo the work is pretty similar.

A pre_meds 2 cents!!

Neurosurgeons don't know anything but do everything, neurologists know everything but don't do anything, pathologists know everything and do everything but they are always late.
