At Ascension St. Francis Hospital - Outpatient Center, we provide personalized and compassionate care for adults with all types of MS. Your neurology care team includes experienced neurologists, physiatrists, nurses and physician assistants. Your doctors and care team listen to understand you and your health concerns. Then, we work with you to create a care plan that’s right for you. 

Learning to manage your MS symptoms

Multiple sclerosis is a neurologic condition that causes a disconnect between your brain and the nerves in your body. Managing your multiple sclerosis symptoms depends on which nerve is affected and if the damage is in your brain or spine. Our neurologists and psychiatrists provide diagnostic tests and thorough evaluations to diagnose your MS. Then, we work together to create a personalized care plan that’s right for you. A range of treatment options are available to help improve your quality of life, including:

  • Botox to reduce spasticity
  • Infusion therapy
  • Intrathecal baclofen pump (IBP) to deliver a liquid form of baclofen to the spinal fluid
  • Medication management
  • Mental health counseling for you and your family
  • Nutrition and wellness counseling
  • Plasmapheresis
  • Rehabilitation services

To learn more about MS clinical trials, talk with your neurologist.
