Multiple Sclerosis Treatment

At Good Shepherd, we offer comprehensive MS services in a care model that focuses on teamwork and partnership. We work directly with you to develop goals and appropriate treatment plans to help you get the most out of your rehabilitation and the most out of your life.

Good Shepherd is designated as a National MS Society “Partner in MS Care,” which is a national program that recognizes and supports quality care for individuals living with multiple sclerosis. The partnership between the National MS Society and Good Shepherd helps patients receive comprehensive MS services.
