5.0 star star star star starDr. Rodriguez, Lauren (his PA) and his ENTIRE Team are the BEST! They all go above and beyond the call of duty to make sure your questions are answered, your care is prioritized and any other potential treatment are reviewed and/or recommended. I would not go anywhere else!

5.0 star star star star starI cannot thank Dr. Rodriguez enough for all that he has done for me. As indicated above, Dr. Rodriguez saved my life, and continues to keep me alive. I have a life threatening disease, and with his assistance and guidance, I am alive and able to enjoy my young granddaughter and watch her grow up. The man is a gift to any patient he treats.

External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
