If you’ve already been diagnosed by a doctor with sciatica, you need a referral to a specialist for treatment. Neurosurgeons don't need to operate on sciatica unless there’s an underlying back problem or another problem. If it’s sciatica , They usually refer to another specialist after reviewing imaging studies.
