The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences recently cut the ribbon on the UAMS Health MS Clinic at its Northwest Regional Campus in Fayetteville.
“UAMS is committed to expanding specialized care throughout the state, and with the opening of the new multiple sclerosis clinic, people in Northwest Arkansas living with MS can now receive treatment from neurologists who specialize in that disease — without leaving the region,” said UAMS Chancellor C. Lowry Barnes, M.D.
Located at 1125 N. College Ave., the clinic will be under the supervision of Robert “Lee” Archer, M.D., professor of neurology in the UAMS Department of Neurology, according to a press release.
The Rampy Multiple Sclerosis Research Foundation, created by Jo and Scott Rampy, made a $100,000 gift to the UAMS Department of Neurology to help open the clinic, the release stated.
“I am very thankful to the UAMS Northwest Regional Campus staff for all their diligent work getting the clinic up and running, ensuring we are able to provide world-class care,” said Ryan Cork, MSHA, vice chancellor for the Northwest Arkansas Region. “This is an exciting development for the Northwest Arkansas community, and we are very grateful for partners like the Rampy Foundation.”
