5.0 star star star star starLove Dr McNally! I feel she goes above and beyond for me as a patient and she is so knowledgeable and œwith it? in regard to new treatments. I honestly feel she is saving my life. There are hundreds of cardiologists I could see in my area and Northwestern is a long commute and big hassle but getting great care with Dr McNally is worth it.

5.0 star star star star starDr. McNally came very prepared, beyond my expectation, having reviewed everything I sent ahead of time and even had a plan of action in mind. She was clear while explaining things during my appointment and it was obvious that she was an expert in her field. She also didn't rush and made sure to leave time to ask any questions.

She is top notch; professional, top in her field, thorough, great bedside manner and cares about her patients. She spends quality time with you and explains things in terms patients can understand. I highly recommend Dr. McNally. The staff is also great. Pre appointment work was well organized And thorough. They are also very friendly and courteous.

5.0 star star star star starShe is honest, positive, and content of conversation relevent and relatable for those not versed in medical speech. She has gone above and beyond to get past medical information and stayed up to date on all of the advances for rare genetic issue that we are facing.

5.0 star star star star starMy son (34 yrs young) is the patient at NM. He has a very serious heart condition that, I believe, thanks to NM has been contained and has allowed him to continue his life almost like normal. I wish it could have been totally cured, but we still have our son and will take him any way we can. We still continue to hope that NM will come up with something that will do just what we've prayed for.

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.
