Clinicians across the country are invited to share experiences, successes and ideas at the inaugural SMA Clinical Care Meeting to be held on Saturday, June 16, 2018 at the 2018 Annual SMA Conference in Dallas, Texas.
As Spinraza and future FDA-approved treatments extend the lives of those with SMA, care has become even more important. Our goal is not only to extend life, but also to ensure the best possible quality of life.
To lead the conversation, we are encouraging families and individuals to invite their healthcare providers. Click the link below for a “Save the Date” reminder for you to email to your clinician, or print and bring to your next appointment.
