Orthopaedic Surgeon: Typically, it is an orthopaedic surgeon who can provide for the full range of diagnosis & treatment which can range from observation, bracing and surgery as well as categorizing the type of scoliosis & the options for treatment and prognosis. There are other specialists who may contribute in the diagnosis & nonop management as well. Some neurosurgeons have had training in the surgical management.
