I feel Dr Krygsheld and staff took good care of me and took the necessary time to treat my injury. Good explanation of what was the reason for my pain and what my options of treatment were. A plan was developed and I was given a cortisone shot for some quick relief while I await a surgery date. The shot was not as painfull as other people told me it would be, maybe because of the location, or maybe because Dr took the time and didn't rush and push the cortisone too fast. The morning after the shot, my pain was 90% better and I was not walking with a limp.

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.
