I am actively miscarrying and saw Dr. Pelletier to make sure things are going well. I have a complicated history and was worried going into this appointment that it wasn't the typical case to be referred to specialists to find answers, but she put me at ease immediately and began ordering labs and completing referrals for me to find answers. She answered all of my questions and made me feel very heard and supported.

Dr Pelletier is AMAZING, she is real and makes you feel heard. She listens, never makes you feel rushed and is non judgmental. I just delivered at 42 and unsure if we will try IVF again or be finished. Dr Pelletier responded with, "we will take care of you, not matter what you decide" - super kind and assuring. She is a great asset to Northwestern!

Disclosures

Melissa May Deer Pelletier, DO reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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.
