What kind of place is this?
You’re at an academic MS center that blends specialist care with therapy, education, and support programs. You can expect a multidisciplinary team, access to the MS Achievement Center, and a strong connection to research and training. You may have less convenience than a virtual-first clinic because care is in one Kansas City location and virtual visits are not offered.
