Amy was an outstanding physical therapist and made a tremendous difference in my recovery from two frozen shoulders. Over 8 visits, she provided clear guidance, helpful home exercises, and care that was always tailored to what I needed in each session. Her intuition, knowledge, and compassion built immediate trust, and I always felt supported and confident in the treatment I was receiving. I would enthusiastically recommend Amy to anyone in need of physical therapy.

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.
