There are many different kinds of surgery that you can perform, a great learning tool that many Doctors are using nowadays is by playing surgery games. Follow the link below if you want to learn how to perform surgery.
Start with your general practitioner (or family doctor), and he/she will send you to, or recommend, the appropriate specialist. Or just go to an internist.
I just had this surgery done and came out fine although you are looking at about 12,000 USD for it to happen
If you have a disk herniation or disk bulge, either a Chiropractor (DC), Doctor of Medicine (MD) or a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) are all qualified and capable of helping you.
Spinal manipulation by docotrs of chiropractoric has been shown to be effective and perfectly safe for treating herniated disks (references 1-4 below), and there are almost no risks associated. Thus, it is always worth a try to see if a chiropractor can help.
Sometimes very severe disk problems can require a trip to a surgeon to ensure that neurological damage is not a risk. Your DC, MD, or DO should be able to inform you of whether or not you need to see a surgeon. Interestinglly, a recent study found that 60% of people who were thought to need surgery for a disk herniation causing sciatica benefited equally as well from chiropractic care as they would have from surgery (reference 4 below). Thus, seeing a chiropractor for your disk herniation has a good chance of providing the same benefit as surgery in a majority of cases. A safe approach would be to try chiropractic, if it works (60% of the time) then you can avoid surgery, if it doesnt work (40% of the time) then the option for surgery is always still there.
