" Rozia, do you mind if I ask where you got the names of these neurosurgeons? For, I called the Neurosurgical Institute of Kentucky and asked to see their surgeon that specialized in chiari malformation.
They gave me the name of another surgeon in their group. I had to get special permission
from their office manager to see him, because I had already seen another surgeon in their group 10 years ago. This is the surgeon that recommended I wait to have surgery, until I could not stand the pain anylonger or having black outs. "
