What is the best doctor to perform an exploratory surgery for nerve damage?

Nerve repair: Most major medical centers will have a physician or team of physicians trained in nerve repair surgical options. They are usually plastic or neurological surgeons. I suggest calling the hospital system near you and ask to be connected to a triage nurse who can usually offer suggestions. Your primary care doctor is also a good source of referral.

Look on line: Many medical schools will have a peripheral nerve specialist in the neurosurgery department. Google the term "peripheral nerve specialist".
