The MS Center's goal is to provide a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan for MS patients. In addition, the MS Center strives to provide an opportunity for the patient to address their needs with each specialty service and leave with a treatment plan to optimize their health.
MS patients will experience a focused assessment by the MS Center in a timely and efficient manner. The patient will meet each team member for an individual evaluation and examination. Team members include neurologists, nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Various other specialties such as urology and social work are available. A representative from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is sometimes available to meet patients and provide referrals to community resources.
