Dr. Abbas was professional, courteous, highly communicative and encouraged me to ask questions...all very positive traits. She diagnosed my issue, sent a prescription and helped me pursue an appointment with a specialist. I appreciated her prompt and helpful responses (via the NM app) to my ongoing questions/status, an impressive and unusual level of responsiveness, at least in my experience with other doctors. I feel very confident that my healthcare is in good hands with Dr. Abbas.

I was very worried about her. Today just about when my visit with her was over, she asked me about my friend. She wanted to know how she was. It really made my day, her asking.

Disclosures

Maliha Abbas, DO reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
