Hey, sorry so late!  Dr riser is amazing. She was my specialist for over a year before I moved to mobile. She is very thorough and listens well to all of your concerns. She didn't make me feel like anything was in my head as some ppl have complained about and is very empathetic. She has a great team of nurses and works with a large range of insurance carriers and will work with you to complete any testing you request. She has an infusion center at her office and an MRI machine, 3T I believe... If ur insurance won't cover it (as mine didn't) she has a network for other sufficient imaging centers closed by. As away, like I said, I was with her do over a year. Started out on cops one, transitioned to tisabri , had steroid infusions there , also she works well with the eye foundation hospital downtown. .. That's where I was first dx'd with ON and suspicious MS.

Trying to find out myself. It sounds like a one place to get everything done. Test, therapy etc. I have heard good things about Emily Riser but not good on the cp but looking for the tanner center led me to this site which is wonderful.
