She is pleasant, very clear in her explanations, and practical in her approach. She has given me good advice on managing my on-going health practices. I live in Colorado and my interactions via email or phone work well during the time between my physicals. She is prompt in responding and clear in her direction.

I found Dr Cheng very insightful and balanced in her approach. She was quite holistic in how she thinks about overall health being more than just the numbers and also taking into account whole life aspects (relationships, stress, sleep, etc). She spent time explaining things and it is clear she does a lot of continuous learning, which I appreciate.

Absolutely the most intelligent, fact based and empathetic primary care physician I've ever had. Very in-tune with women's health. Knows where to push me and also what is realistic. She gives practical suggestions that are backed by data and her clinical experience, to drive real behavior change.

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.
