At the Emory MS Center, we understand how complex and frightening it can be to get a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) or an autoimmune condition that affects the central nervous system.
Our team works hard to give you easy access to neurological care. We provide compassionate, comprehensive and efficient care to anyone with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, possible multiple sclerosis, or other similar conditions.
Founded in 2008, the Emory MS Center is a key part of Emory Healthcare’s brain health services.
