The Neurology Medical School Clinic has all the research and expertise for MS. If you live within an hour of a Medical School, it is likely where most of the MS in the region is treated. Often with MS, there is research treatment that is new and only available at Medical School Clinics. Also, because it is a diagnosis with such an impact on one's life, best to have a second opinion.
