Our multiple sclerosis service 

We know that coping with multiple sclerosis (MS) is not easy.

We are an established service that has worked closely with thousands of people living with MS across North London and Hertfordshire. Our MS service is based at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery (NHNN), in Queen Square in central London.

The MS clinical service is closely linked with University College London's Queen Square Institute of Neurology (ION) and together forms the largest single-site centre for neurology and neurosurgery in the UK.  

Our team are committed to delivering the best possible care to people with MS. The key focus for our the specialist team is early, accurate MS diagnosis and provision of disease-modifying therapies for people with active MS. 

Specialist clinics are available for people with suspected MS, family planning for women with MS, transition of young people with MS from Great Ormond Street Hospital and people with complex needs in the setting of advanced MS.  

The MS team work closely with physiotherapists, occupational therapists and the wider multidisciplinary team to help manage symptoms of MS.
