Surgery (from the Greek cheirourgia meaning "hand work") is the medical specialty that treats diseases or injuries by operative manual and instrumental treatment. Surgeons may be physicians, dentists, or veterinarians who specialize in surgery.
A surgery can also refer to the place where surgery is performed, or simply the office of a physician, dentist, or veterinarian.
