5.0 star star star star starDr. Saltoun was very thorough, thoughtful, and carefully reviewed my history and current issue. She asked a lot of questions and answered all of my questions. She was extremely patient and did not rush the interview or exam.

5.0 star star star star starI would recommend Dr. Saltoun because she listens to me and gives me recommendations on how to deal with my allergy issues. Her recommendations have improved my quality of life during allergy season.

5.0 star star star star starI had an allergic reaction, hospitalized and incubated twice within 3 days at a local hospital in NW Indiana that did not have an allergic on staff. I was scared to death, not knowing what caused the allergic reaction, closing my airway to close completely in less than 10 minutes. While in ICU my husband called NM and spoke with spoke with one of your caring representatives, she posted an alert and Dr. Saltoun office responded to the alert within the hour and I had an appointment to see her as soon as I was released from the hospital.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Saltoun was well prepared for the reason of my visit and had her team ready. Dr showed expertise in her field and shared with me how the molecular weights of the substances worked within the data. I understood and appreciated her recommendations as well as what I could expect.

1.0 star star_border star_border star_border star_borderShe needs to be more respectful of her patients time. We have other things to do that day than sit around and wait for her 5 minute visit. For the reasons I stated above: I was scheduled for4 9:00am. When I got there, I was called along with another person. Then I was told there were two patients ahead of me at 9:40. No one seemed to've read my chart. All three persons, including the doctor, asked me the same thing. I had updated my chart. Also, it is disrespectful to call a person by their first name. Fine to give a number, to call an older person by their first name is so disrespectful. Be nice and call them Mrs. so and so. At about 9:47-9:50 the doctor came in, stayed for 5 minutes, asking the same questions and walked me out to await giving blood for lab.
Disclosures
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.
