Looking for a brain doctor, nerve doctor or headache specialist? A neurologist is the medical term for a brain and nerve doctor who treats conditions like migraines, severe headaches, epilepsy, seizures, stroke, Parkinson's disease, memory problems and nerve pain. If you are experiencing frequent headaches, numbness, weakness or loss of balance, a neurologist is the right doctor. In India, a qualified brain doctor holds MBBS, MD (General Medicine) and DM (Neurology). A neurologist manages conditions with medicine, while a neurosurgeon handles brain surgery. For stroke care, look for a hospital with a dedicated stroke unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a brain doctor and a brain surgeon?
A brain doctor (neurologist) diagnoses and treats brain and nerve conditions using medicine and non-surgical methods. A brain surgeon (neurosurgeon) performs surgery on the brain and spine. Many conditions like migraines, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease are managed entirely by a brain doctor without any surgery.
What qualifications should a brain and nerve specialist in India have?
A qualified brain doctor in India holds MBBS, MD (General Medicine) and DM (Neurology). Some neurologists also hold DNB or international fellowships. For specific conditions like epilepsy or movement disorders, look for a subspecialist with dedicated experience in that area.
