MS Mobile Clinic to return to Fort McMurray

The Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Society of Canada will be bringing their Mobile Clinic back to our community.

The Clinic is set to take place October 27th and 28th supported by the Wood Buffalo Primary Care Network.

Will offer a full two days of appointment availability and will host a MS Support team including, a neurologist and MS nurse.

People living with MS and other autoimmune disorders have the need to visit specialists and neurologists on a regular basis. Currently in the Wood Buffalo Region there are no MS specialists or neurologists, leaving it necessary to take the long and sometimes expensive trip to Edmonton or Calgary for appropriate health care.

While separate from the Clinic itself, the general public can attend an evening presentation on October 27 by the specialists to educate the Wood Buffalo Region about MS and the importance of MS knowledge.

For information about how to apply to be a patient at the MS Mobile Clinic or for general inquiries about getting involved with the MS Society, call 587-601-1716, email Cait.Evans@mssociety.ca
