Timely personalized medicine is an unmet, critical need in multiple sclerosis (MS). A major barrier to providing individualized care is the lack of information on which interventions are most appropriate for whom. In this viewpoint, we submit a rationale and three-step roadmap to personalized integrative medicine. This multidisciplinary team approach requires that we (1) comprehensively assess whole health at diagnosis, (2) appropriately integrate data within electronic health record systems and leverage machine learning to analyze big data, and (3) design, test, and deliver multimodal interventions. Using a whole-person approach to assessment and intervention, we will be better informed to provide personalized care at the level of the individual.
