Center for Multiple Sclerosis

It is estimated that 400,000 people in the U.S. are living with Multiple Sclerosis. Multiple Sclerosis is the chronic, unpredictable neurological disease that affects the central nervous system.

At the Saint Thomas Center for MS, we make a positive difference in the lives of individuals and their loved ones living with Multiple Sclerosis. Utilizing a full range of therapies, treatments and support services, our team of neurologists, radiologists and therapists provide the care necessary to live life with the highest level of independence and the best health possible. Our multidisciplinary team has access to the most advanced diagnostic and treatment therapies available and are dedicated to providing an integrated approach to compassionate, individualized care.

We understand that each patient has specific needs and work with patients to develop a carefully tailored plan that fits their requirements. We have the capability to provide all available forms of treatment for Multiple Sclerosis and in certain cases, investigational therapies may also be available.

While we don't yet have a cure for MS, we do have treatments, therapies and strategies available that can slow the course of the disease, treat the exacerbations or flare-ups, manage many of the symptoms, and improve functionality and quality of life.

Medical supervision of the Center for MS is provided by Dr. Robert Fallis. Dr. Fallis has received extensive training in the treatment and diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis and related diseases.
