Dr. Edward Hellman answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Primary care: Most back problems are initially seen by a primary care doctor and have a very favorable short term prognosis. For more severe cases, a patient is often sent to a specialist such as an interventional pain specialist or an orthopedic or neurosurgeon. Thank you for the question.
