neurosurgical residency

Neurosurgical residency is specialized training for doctors who want to become neurosurgeons. It typically lasts 6-7 years and includes hands-on surgical practice, patient management, and medical research. Residents learn to diagnose and treat brain, spine, and nervous system conditions through surgeries and medical therapies. Under supervision, they gradually take on more responsibility to develop their surgical skills, medical knowledge, and decision-making abilities. The goal is to prepare them to independently provide complex surgical care for neurological disorders, ensuring safe, effective treatment for patients.
