Easy to talk to and a very good listener. His recommendation to thoroughly test my bladder before proceeding to the next phase of treatment was reassuring and welcome. Previous Doctor was ready to just give me a Botox Regimen w/o any further tests and no seemingly strong concern to what the consequences might entail if the bladder was not able to accept Botox, i.e. "wearing a catheter" Note:I been there and never want to do it again!

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.
