7mÊÓƵ

The Multiple Sclerosis Fellowship at 7mÊÓƵ is a one-year clinical fellowship that begins July 1. Applications are accepted through the San Francisco match.

Multiple sclerosis care at 7mÊÓƵ is mainly focused at three outpatient clinical sites. We have access to several large hospital facilities as well, in case of need for inpatient evaluation or treatment. Our main outpatient facility is the Maxine Mesinger Multiple Sclerosis Comprehensive Care Center, a multidisciplinary specialty care center, which was founded in 2003. Training also occurs at Harris Health Multiple Sclerosis Clinic, part of our public county hospital system. Finally, MS fellows participate in the Pediatric Demyelinating Diseases Clinic at Texas Children’s Hospital.

We have a large population of patients with multiple sclerosis who are followed in this clinic, with more than 4000 patient contacts per year. Most patients are from Texas or Louisiana, although patients come from other states, Latin America, and other regions as well. The full gamut of subspecialty consultants is available to us as part of our "center without walls." This includes identified specialists in neuropsychology, psychiatry, neuro-urology, neuro-ophthalmology, gastroenterology, women's care, and any other subspecialty that one could need.
