It's nice talking to a Doctor Who cares and we'll take the time to listen and to give you her feedback. I've been sick for over five years so sometimes my patience is thin, but she was caring. I could tell she talk to me about the situation and the medicines and she took the time to explain everything to me.

Dr Spaho was very knowledgeable about my issues and developed a plan that hopefully will help me. She took her time asking me questions so she could fully understand my issues and was compassionate when explaining my options. She's the 1st doctor to recognize I'm exhausted from my symptoms and needed someone to listen to me before moving forward with care.

I'm sorry my previous answer had some missing info. I was at NM only a sort time to have a follow up on my esophagus problem. But as the message said all did their part . Dr Spaho did a follow-up a month or so after I had trouble swallowing and though I would have liked better results I felt cared for and will follow Dr Spaho's advice and remain on a puree diet from now on. Encouraging and informative and I left feeling I had good personal care. Thank you, [Patient's Name]

Disclosures

Lidia Spaho, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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.
