Dr. Szmuilowicz Is exceptional. Kind, caring, nice to talk with- all great traits for someone devoted to palliative care. He is also an excellent clinician- digging into a differential diagnosis regarding hip pain- not just assuming that bone Mets was the cause- but possibly injury- he provided detailed notes with 3 DD options, presented in a clear way in mychart, and made a referral to a specialist PT. It was my first meeting with Dr. S- I am so impressed, and know I will be in good hands going forward.

Disclosures

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.
