🧡 Kicking Off MS Awareness Month with Exciting News! 🧡

We’re proud to share that our very own Amanda Quarles, NP, was recently recognized in the Mississippi Association of Nurse Practitioners (MSANP) monthly newsletter following an interview with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, spearheaded by the national chapter.

This recognition speaks volumes about the strength of our MS program and the impact Amanda is making for patients across Mississippi. Her dedication to compassionate, specialized MS care does not go unnoticed, and we are so grateful to have her leading the way.

As we begin MS Awareness Month, we’re honored to highlight this feature and the continued work being done to support those living with multiple sclerosis.

UMMC phone lines are now working, and we are calling patients to reschedule missed appointments. If you need to reach us, please call your clinic or our main lines. Thank you for your support as we work to recover and provide care for patients at all our locations.

02/24/2026

The UMMC Triage Line has been set up for calls from patients. The telephone number is 601-815-0000. For medical emergencies, call 911.

Requests for time-sensitive needs, such as medication refills or postoperative care visits, will be prioritized.

What to expect when you call

Please speak clearly when prompted to provide your name, callback number, date of birth, who you are trying to reach and your reason for calling. People calling for prescription refills should have on hand the medication name and dosage, plus the name, address and telephone number of their pharmacy.

About the call back

Messages will be routed to the appropriate person for a return phone call, in as timely a manner as possible. Please be aware your return call may be from a non-UMMC number. Return calls may be delayed as we anticipate a high volume of calls daily from across the state.

Please do not call multiple times. Repeated calls will slow our ability to respond.

We apologize for this interruption of our services. Teams are working around the clock to restore full operations and help as many people as quickly as we possibly can.

Thank you for your support and understanding.
