What to expect during your care

At your first visit, your care team will review your medical history, symptoms, imaging, and lab results and complete a neurological exam. You'll also have time to ask questions and talk with your care team about your diagnosis, treatment options and goals.

Your treatment plan may include disease-modifying medications, infusion therapy, symptom management, MRI monitoring and referrals for physical, occupational, or speech therapy. Depending on your needs, you may also work with advanced practice providers, infusion nurses, rehabilitation specialists, pharmacists, social workers, and other members of your care team.
