Multiple Sclerosis Center
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the brain and spinal cord. The condition can cause problems with muscle control and strength, vision, balance and sensation (such as numbness or tingling in the feet or hands). MS affects individuals in different ways. For people who have mild symptoms now and then, the disease may not have much impact on their lives. People with more severe MS have ongoing symptoms and may become disabled within a few years. Most people with MS are somewhere between these two extremes.
Patients who come to Cedars-Sinai's Multiple Sclerosis Center are assured of receiving superior and compassionate care from health professionals whose medical specialty is diagnosing and treating MS. The medical staff at the MS Center is involved not only in clinical care but also in research into the disease.
