Tethered Cord surgeon needed

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. My wife (36) has had unexplained symptoms for two years -pain in

head,neck, and lower back, burning in hips, some convulsions, urinary

infections, dizziness and unstable, etc... She has recently been diagnosed with

tethered cord syndrome and told needed surgery. We are having a hard time

finding neurosurgeons experienced with this and are willing to travel anywhere.

Anyone heard good or bad about The Chiari Institute in New York or Hopkins

in land? Also, I don't understand the surgery - we were told the doctor

cuts the cord in half - is this correct? Thank you for your help.
