Marengo Asia Hospitals Gurugram launches specialised multiple sclerosis clinic

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) continues to pose a major health challenge, with more than two lakh diagnosed cases in India and millions of people affected worldwide. Marengo Asia Hospitals, Gurugram, has launched a dedicated “Multiple Sclerosis Clinic” on the occasion of World Multiple Sclerosis Day, observed on 30 May, to strengthen awareness, enable early diagnosis, and provide comprehensive treatment and long-term support for patients living with Multiple Sclerosis.

Speaking at the launch, Dr Praveen Gupta, Chairman, Marengo Asia International Institute of Neuro and Spine (MAIINS), Marengo Asia Hospitals Gurugram, said, “MS is an autoimmune disease that causes multiple attacks on the nervous system, leading to significant morbidity among young people. However, the good news is that if we diagnose MS early and initiate therapy promptly, we can significantly improve the patient journey and ensure that patients maintain a good quality of life.”

Bipasha Gupta, Chairperson, Delhi Chapter, Multiple Sclerosis Society of India (MSSI), said, “Early diagnosis and timely treatment are critical because they can help prevent disability and enable patients to continue leading active and productive lives with the support of improved disease-modifying therapies.”

The launch of the specialised clinic, under the theme “Navigating MS Together”, brought together medical experts, patients, caregivers, and rehabilitation specialists. 

Through this dedicated clinic, Marengo Asia Hospitals aims to provide integrated, patient-centric care that includes advanced diagnostics, disease management, counselling, rehabilitation, and long-term monitoring for Multiple Sclerosis.
