Excellent appointment with Dr Heredia for my son's first well care and school physical visit. The nurse we saw before Dr was kind and welcoming also. I really enjoyed how Dr spoke to my teen son and really made him and myself comfortable with the visit. She was patient , and had great recommendations for his particular situation. Her instructions were clear and understandable. He is looking forward to keeping her as his Dr. I hope my daughter will have the ability to meet her and join this office as well. Thank you!

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.
