One MyMSTeam member shared a similar experience: *"The first neurologist I had, it just wasn't ideal. I almost felt like it was a lack of care and concern, and so I recommend if anyone ever feels that they're not getting the attention they deserve, do your research and find someone who's best for you."*
Trust that instinct — you absolutely deserve a specialist who listens! 💙
