An orthopedic surgeon has specialization in preserving, investigating, and restoring the form and function of the extremities, spine, and related structures through medical, surgical, and physical methods. They care for patients with musculoskeletal issues, including congenital deformities, trauma, infections, tumors, metabolic disturbances, and degenerative diseases affecting the spine, hands, feet, knees, hips, shoulders, and elbows in both children and adults. Additionally, orthopedic surgeons address primary and secondary muscular problems and the impact of central or peripheral nervous system lesions on the musculoskeletal system.

An obstetrician/gynecologist has specialized knowledge, skills, and expertise in the medical and surgical management of the female reproductive system and related disorders. This physician acts as a consultant to other healthcare providers while also serving as a primary care physician for women, addressing their unique health needs throughout various stages of life.

Obstetrician / Gynecologist (OBGYN)

A pediatrician focuses on the physical, emotional, and social health of children from birth through young adulthood. Their care includes a wide range of health services, from preventive healthcare to diagnosing and treating acute and chronic diseases. Pediatricians consider the biological, social, and environmental influences on a child's development, as well as how diseases and dysfunctions can impact growth and overall development.


Dermatologists are medical professionals trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of skin conditions in both children and adults, including skin cancers, melanomas, and other tumors. They also manage disorders of the mouth, external genitalia, hair, and nails, and are skilled in treating conditions like dermatitis, allergic reactions, and skin manifestations of systemic diseases. Dermatologists receive specialized training in dermatopathology and dermatologic surgical techniques, and address cosmetic issues such as hair loss and scarring. Additionally, they use laboratory methods to diagnose immune-related skin disorders, often collaborating with immunohematologists for expert consultation and targeted therapies.
