Meet the UCR Health Multiple Sclerosis Care Team

Multiple Sclerosis Care at UCR Health

At UCR Health, we understand that multiple sclerosis (MS) affects each patient in unique ways. Our MS care team is dedicated to providing you with an individualized management plan based on your needs – delivering compassionate, advanced medical care to help you manage your symptoms and provide you with greater control over your illness.

The Multiple Sclerosis Program at UCR Health is designated by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society as a Partner in MS Care. Led by Dr. Elizabeth Morrison-Banks, our MS care team has extensive knowledge and experience in MS care:

Elizabeth Morrison-Banks, MD, MSED, Director: Dr. Morrison-Banks is a Health Sciences Clinical Professor of Neurology and a fellowship-trained neuroimmunologist. She is also a clinical researcher and has more than 13 years of experience caring for adults and teens with multiple sclerosis and related conditions.

In addition to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care, our team of experts is at the forefront of MS research, aiming to find new therapies to treat MS. We also care for patients who have been diagnosed with other demyelinating disorders such as neuromyelitis optica and transverse myelitis.
