Neurologist Lily Jung-Henson will discuss the role information overload can play in the treatment options for people dealing with Multiple Sclerosis on Saturday, May 31, at the Swedish Medical Center campus in the Issaquah Highlands.
Dr. Jung-Henson will discuss the benefits versus the potential risks that various treatment options can have on a patient’s lifestyle during the free workshop.

Dr. Jung-Henson is head of the Swedish Neuroscience Center and a recognized expert in the diagnosis and treatment of multiple sclerosis.
