Dr. Joy is an outstanding pediatrician. She always listens to my concerns for both my children. She takes her time during sick visits and wellness check-ups. She's very easy to talk to, I never feel judgment when asking any questions or raising concerns regarding the health of my children. She makes me feel like im doing the "right thing" when it comes to what's best for both my children's health.

Dr. Castrovillari took the time to talk to [Patient] and asked him several questions about himself to put him at ease. He told her he was nervous about getting shots and she explained to him the procedure. I was impressed with how much time she spent listening to him.

Disclosures

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.
