Neurologist
Explanation:
A doctor who specializes in neurology is called a neurologist. The neurologist treats disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, such as:
-Cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke
-Demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, such as multiple sclerosis
-Headache disorders
-Infections of the brain and peripheral nervous system
-Movement disorders, such as Parkinson's disease
-Neurodegenerative disorders, such as -Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and -Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease)
-Seizure disorders, such as epilepsy
Spinal cord disorders

Neurologists do not perform surgery. If one of their patients requires surgery, they refer them to a neurosurgeon.
