Dr. Patel truly listens to her patients and treats them as individuals, not just diagnoses. She takes the time to understand the full picture and thoughtfully adjusts treatment based on what is best for the patient, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Her knowledge, attention to detail, and willingness to individualize care have made an incredibly difficult time much more manageable for our family. We are grateful to be under her care.

Disclosures

Bindiya G. Patel, 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.
