Hello!

My name is Angel Fernández, I’m from Valencia (Spain) and 9 years ago I received the diagnosis of Syringomyelia, Arnold-Chiari Syndrome and Idiopathic Scoliosis. By doing some research on the Internet, I found the Institut Chiari de Barcelona. My symptoms were: dizziness, headache and neck pain. I decided to undergo the surgery that is performed at this medical institute and it has been 9 years since then. I really feel very well, the dizziness and the migraine disappeared and two days after the surgery I started to notice changes; I recovered the sensitivity on the left side of the body. I am really grateful to this medical Institut for everything they have done for me, because thanks to them, nowadays I can have a normal life and feel fine.
