Dr. Zaidi seems to listen well and welcome questions. He is a compassionate and clear communicator. I feel like he probably could have read through my file better before the appointment… I get the impression he read a rushed summary of my background and pulled out a few tidbits that turned out to be inaccurate. He surely sees so many people that I don’t expect him to know each of us… Especially someone like me who has not been there in two years, but would be nice to think they do.

Asim R. Zaidi, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
