5.0 star star star star starDr. Degesys is a caring, compassionate and extremely competent doctor. In addition she has family members that are doctors with which to share knowledge and get input. I feel that I get the benefit of that shared knowledge in my care.

5.0 star star star star starShe was very personable, took her time, listened to my concerns, and explained everything very well from what previous doctors to her findings. She wasn't in a hurry to order all kinds of tests or medications. Felt very at ease with her.

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.
