This department provides a comprehensive inpatient out patient and day case service to people with multiple sclerosis and allied conditions - such as Neuromyelitis Optica.

We have a team of consultants interested in multiple sclerosis and one with a neurological disability interest. There is also an excellent team of MS Specialist nurses.

There are clinics both in Sheffield and in some of our linked District General hospitals. Nurse led clinics are provided across the region with a weekly relapse clinic in Sheffield. A wide variety of disease modyfying treatments are also provided on an outpatiet or day case basis, if appropriate.

The service is supported by excellent in patient, day patient and diagnostic radiology and neurophysiology services. The team is also involved in patient and health professional education and highly active in research, both clinical trials and through links with basic science researchers.
