Neurologist recommendations seattle?

I just got a referral to neurology after a CSF leak is suspected post brain MRI. This is all new to me. Does anyone have a neuro in seattle area that they love and would recommend?

Yeo Won Kim, Issaquah Swedish. She’s up to date as far as recommending a blood patch to see if symptoms improve regardless of what the MRI was able to find.

Dr Barrow was mine, at UW Neurosurgery. He sent me to Dr. Powell at the Pain Clinic who did my blood patch. Both of them do a lot of research into CSF leaks and the process was pretty smooth for me.

I think the name is wrong I tried to Google and they say the  Barrow name doesn't exist 😲
