What department of physician sees higher brain dysfunction? 　First of all, let me give you an answer. 　If you are a doctor, it doesn't really matter what department you are in. 　Naturally, a person with a severe head injury would have been saved first by an emergency room doctor or a neurosurgeon, and then by a neurologist or a rehabilitation doctor, etc., for rehabilitation. 　There is also the process up to that point, and for people with brain injuries caused by cerebrovascular accidents, prevention of recurrence is also important, so it is natural that they see the doctor of their choice. 　However, after returning home and to work, something is not quite right. If you think that you may have a higher brain dysfunction, you may wonder where you should go. 　It would be nice if they could consult with their current doctor and get an answer, but that is not quite possible yet. 　Of course, there are coordinators in each prefecture who provide consultation on higher brain dysfunction for such cases, so I think it would be a good idea to consult with them first. 　Going back to the first question, it doesn't matter what department you are in. The point is to see a doctor who is familiar with higher brain dysfunction. 　Besides, I always say that people with higher brain dysfunction go to various departments: neurosurgery, rehabilitation, neurology, psychiatry, internal medicine, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, urology, etc. No matter which department they go to, it is always better to have a doctor who is familiar with brain injury and higher brain dysfunction. 　It is especially important to note that just because a person is a neurosurgeon or psychiatrist does not necessarily mean that he or she can treat higher brain dysfunction. 　Neurosurgeons are experts in diagnosing and operating on brain tumors and cerebrovascular disorders and are not necessarily familiar with long-term psychological or psychiatric conditions. 　Psychiatrists may also be familiar with schizophrenia, neurosis, and dementia, but not with symptoms and medications for higher brain dysfunction, especially neuropsychological symptoms and organic mental disorders. 　Find a doctor who is familiar with higher brain dysfunction and the sequelae of brain injury.
