5.0 star star star star starI felt like Cynthia truly was advocating for my best interests in efforts to minimize further issues. Cynthia was thorough and provided a detailed explanation of my situation, was a good listener, took the time to understand where I'm at, and clearly communicated the next steps with an emphasis of taking a cautious approach to give time to heal and hopefully still be able to run the Chicago Marathon in October.

5.0 star star star star starCindy went the extra mile to make sure my daughter was comfortable. She explained the treatment options and the pros and cons to each. She also chose an alternate pharmacy for my daughter's prescriptions after checking the hours of operation and noting that our preferred pharmacy was closed. She was also incredibly kind and patient with my daughter. She left two messages before her shift ended to ensure that we received the MyChart update and didn't have any questions. Couldn't have had a better experience.

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.
