Cardiology is a specialty of medicine which deals with problems of heart, arteries and veins. Doctors specializing in Cardiology are called Cardiologists and they treat conditions like heart attack, leaky or narrow valves, heart failure and more.
A general surgeon is a medical professional who performs surgery on patients. General surgeons typically perform common surgeries and have attended college and medical school to learn the skills needed to perform them successfully. They also care for their patients before and after operations and can give an accurate prognosis after the surgery is complete and the patient has had time to heal.
Thoracic surgery is a surgical subspecialty. Its focus is on the organs of the thoracic cavity. Most of the time, this means the heart and lungs. Patients who need thoracic surgery may have any number of problems, such as heart disease or needing a lung transplant.
