What kind of doctor deals with burn victims?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
A team of Doctors: Burn victims are usually treated by a team of doctors because of their complex medical needs. The team frequently includes a plastic surgeon, an internal medicine physician (Or pediatrician if a child is burned), and a psychiatrist. Other physicians are added if necessary such as an intensive care specialist if ICU care is needed or a pulmonary specialist if the lungs are injured. Best wishes!

Depends on the: extent of burn and the areas involved, Minor burns involving small area of the body can be managed in the emergency room or urgent care while significant burns are managed in burn unit or trauma center
