Multiple Sclerosis Center for Comprehensive MS Care

The Multiple Sclerosis Center at Billings Clinic is formally recognized by the National MS Society (NMSS) as a Center for Comprehensive MS care. The impact of multiple sclerosis on the lives of patients and their loved ones is wide ranging and complex. The team at Billings Clinic partners with patients in navigating both the medical and non-medical issues with the goal of achieving the highest level of well-being.

The Center’s mission is to provide a compassionate environment for patients and assist them in navigating their journey with MS or related disorders and ultimately in leading a fulfilling life.

The MS Center team includes:

• Fellowship-trained neuroimmunologists/multiple sclerosis specialists
• Nurses
• Medical assistant
• Advanced practice providers
• Pharmacy technician
• Pharmacist
• Social worker

We work closely with other Billings Clinic specialists to provide coordinated care to patients in the following areas:

• Ophthalmology
• Urology
• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Behavioral health (neuropsychology, counseling, psychiatry)
• physical medicine and rehab to provide coordinated care to patients

We also offer convenient lab service and imaging (MRIs, etc.) right outside the MS Clinic.

Services are also available via the Eastern Montana Telemedicine Network for patients from rural communities so they can stay close to home for follow up appointments. We also work closely with patient’s primary care providers and other services offered in their home towns.

The MS Center at Billings Clinic is actively involved in conducting clinical research and is participating in several clinical trials.

To schedule an appointment please call 406-238-2410. All MS Center appointments are expedited so you will receive timely care. If you already have an MS or other rare neuro-immunological disorder diagnosis, you do not need a referral to make an appointment at the MS Center.
