Hey!

As my chiari symptoms have progressed I am reconsidering Decompression surgery... However, the chiari specialist I saw in 2010 has since left the area. Now I haven't been able to find a specialist.

Anyone know about someone in Alberta? I have heard a few names in BC and ON, but not AB :(

Thanks :)
