Having seen another cardiologist, as well as countless immediate care visits and other specialists in the last few months, Dr. Mushtaq gave me the most thorough exam I’ve had. He was also very patient with my husband and I, taking the time to explain everything, and answer all of our questions. He took my symptoms and concerns seriously, and seems invested in finding out what this is, what this is not, and how best to treat me moving forward.

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.
