About Us
 Because Multiple Sclerosis can be unpredictable and require different types of medical expertise, Newton-Wellesley Hospital’s Multiple Sclerosis Clinic provides a full array of services. Our team has extensive experience with the disease so we can help patients and their families manage both the acute and long-term effects of Multiple Sclerosis. Patients can ask questions and get well-informed answers in an environment that is friendly and supportive.
Our collaborative approach allows us to work together to design the best plan of care for a patient.
An added benefit of the Clinic is that patients can receive all of their care in one place, eliminating the need to visit specialists in scattered locations.
Our team includes:
- Neurologists
- Nurses
- Occupational Therapists
- Ophthalmology Services
- Physical Therapists
- Social Services
- Urological Services
- Other Specialty Services
We also offer an onsite infusion clinic and provide a setting for peer groups to meet and discuss their concerns.
With the advent of electronic medical records we are able to work closely with your primary care physician and other subspecialists and medical centers when necessary. After each visit you will receive a mailed summary of your care and proposed treatment plan.
The Partners Advantage
Newton-Wellesley Hospital is a member of the Partners HealthCare System. This affiliation enables the staff of the Multiple Sclerosis Clinic to coordinate the care our patients receive at other Partners-affiliated hospitals. We are also able to enroll our patients in some of the studies or programs being conducted at these hospitals.
