I have been referred to the spine/brain center at Vanderbilt in Nashville, Tn. and I am scheduled to see them June 24. Does anyone know how I might discuss this with a chiari specialist from the chiari org.; I am not sure if they're considered a specialist facility or not. thanks for everyone's help
Vanderbilt is an excellent facility & university. I would recommend it to anyone.

Hi oldtimer,
On our member-recommended doctors list, there are two doctors at Vanderbilt: a Dr. Joseph Cheng and Dr. Noel Tulipan. Dr. Tulipan appears to be a pediatric neurosurgeon. Here are the links for their webpages:
