He very caring and very attentive to what you are telling him. I feel he is really listening and is very helpful with his recommedations. He certainly has helped me with my last visit. I feel I have made some headway with a problem I have been unable to resolve for years with other Drs ---- and that IS because he listens and cares. My son has a disability and I feel very releaved that he is in the hands and care of Dr. Santi.

We went to Dr. Santi for the first four months of our baby's life. We found him through word of mouth and we really enjoyed having Dr. Santi as our pediatrician. He is kind and understanding, he really listens to and answers our questions, and there is no pushed vaccination schedule (though we did end up following his recommendations). He always gave us good information and multiple options and points of view. Our baby was low in the weight percentile and he never caused us to be scared or fearful but just talked with us. His presence is calm and cheerful, and I am so sad we have to find a new pediatrician because we are moving.

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.
