Suggest Treatment For Juvenile Dermatomyositis

I have an eleven year old daughter diagonsed with Juvenile Dermatomyositis three years ago. she has improved although still has many symtoms and continues on all medications including steroids and cellcept as well as many others. She is treated in Portland Oregon, and we need to spend time in New Mexico for months at a time. We can travel to Arizona and to to texas for her but are looking for a docot who is familiar with her diease. Any thoughts?
