Hi everyone!
Just want to announce that there is now the Canadian Chiari Assoc & we are working in partner with various Drs. We have 2 neurosurgeons as medical advisors as well! I want to share this news as it means you're being heard! Doctors are seeing that there's a need for awareness and understanding.
Our website is www.chiari.ca
Feel free to message me anytime! I'm from Ottawa and currently living in Kingston, ON. My neurologist is Dr Rabinovitch and my surgeon was Dr Agbi. I highly recommend neurosurgeon Dr Sinclair at the Ottawa Civic! He is an amazing man!!
Hello
I wish I could help but I live in BC on Vancouver Island so I have not heard of this DR. Generally though, I am told there is a lot more choice where you live when it comes to knowledgeable Chiari Drs. If your NS is not giving you the info you need then I recommend getting a second opinion. I will see what I can dig up on him and any other good NS and get back to you.
Take care, your hubby is lucky to have you in his side:)
Sorry for any confusion, I am not in Canada and have not been to this Dr....I am trying to contact one of the members for u.....
and I am so sorry this Dr is not helping, may I ask what all are ur DH's symptoms?
How did you find Pokrupa.. he does not seem to want to find the root of the problem with Jim.. thanks any help will be great
On the other post I suggested a few areas in FL u might want to look for a Dr, ur profile indicates u r in FL....sorry for my mistake....*Stormy* is no longer an active member, but u can try sending her a PM (private message) which will generate an e-mail informing her of the PM....
Sorry the list for Canada is so small....not many come back and add their Drs to this list....but we do try : )
