5.0 star star star star starSince day one she made me feel very comfortable communicating with her and I feel like thats extremely important when going through a fertility journey. She is on top of everything along with the care team. I think she’s great, she’s always very optimistic and that helps me be optimistic as well. I know I’m receiving the best care.

5.0 star star star star starWe had a virtual appointment the first time. She listened to my story, and I told her about an appointment I had with a fertility specialist. I explained to her how they right away wanted to do a lot of invasive testing, and how I thought maybe there was a different approach that could be taken with my particular fertility treatment. She sympathized and explained the approach she would take. She took her time to answer all my questions.

5.0 star star star star starShe was personable and amazing. If Dr. Pavone is not available I would not have any problem with Dr. Jungheim overseeing my care. She was never pushy as many healthcare providers can come off as during difficult times.

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.
