Patients in Louisville and Southern Indiana find superior medical care and unparalleled support managing their neurological condition at Norton Neuroscience Institute.
A full range of support options for multiple sclerosis (MS) patients is one reason the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has designated Norton Neuroscience Institute’s MS program as a Center for Comprehensive MS Care.
Experiencing a chronic disease prone to unpredictable symptoms, MS patients benefit from comprehensive care that includes the expertise and viewpoints of health care providers from many specialties.
An array of medical, nursing, mental health, rehabilitation and social services are available to MS patients managing their disease and symptoms.
The Norton Neuroscience Institute Resource Center provides MS patients with social workers and nurse navigators available to help improve your access to care, provide valuable information to help manage your disease and address your quality of life issues.
Norton Neuroscience Institute Resource Center services are available at no cost to Norton Neuroscience Institute patients thanks to donations to the Norton Healthcare Foundation.
