Dr wang has been great from the start. He stepped in to a consult I had with another doctor because his expertise was needed and from there I was able to schedule with his nurse and get booked for surgery. He was totally transparent about my care and made me and my husband both feel fully at ease going into the procedure. He was willing to work with me on post operative appointments and making sure I got scheduled before the holiday weekend for my splint removal

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.
