I know of someone who had great success with Dr. Garni Barhoudarian in Santa Monica, Ca. for the removal of a brain tumor on her brain stem.
(Bark-a-dare-ian) is the pronounciation I believe.
Maybe you could call and see if the surgery you need could be done by him.
Per his website:
Dr. Barhoudarian's clinical interests include pituitary disorders, benign and malignant brain tumor surgery, neuroendoscopy and minimally invasive brain surgery, trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm, and mild to severe head injury/concussion.
Best of luck

If you are Atlanta, I'd look at Duke or Emory. I would go with a large facility for that surgery.

I agree, especially with Duke. I'd also look into Mayo Clinic. They have a team especially for this condition.
I wish you and your wife all the best with this.
