My son was diagnosed with Chiari last week after a sports injury required an MRI. We are seeing a pediatric neurologist in Raleigh, but she is not a chiari specialist. Can anyone suggest a doctor?
There is a pediatric Chiari specialist at Wake Forest in Winston Salem. Don't know anything about him. Dr. Oldfield is at UVA in Charlottesville VA. I was referred to him by A.S.A.P.
We do have a thread here called Chiari specialist list.....most of us do need to travel to get to a specialist .
On the top of my head I can not think of a dr near u that is a ped specialist for chiari...but I do know Dr Frim in Chicago....and there r others.....I will get back to u will more for u to research.
