I started treating with Dr. George six (6) years or so ago and chose him to go along with me on my cancer journey because he came highly recommended. I have always traveled quite a distance to see him in St, Charles at the Delnor Cancer Center and now make an even longer trip to see him in Oakbrook. He is worth the travel distance. Listens to me, we talk about options and decide together what our next step will be. This kind of care is, unfortunately, not the norm. I have found in another doctor's office I occasionally frequent (not Northwestern), that it is in, out and goodbye as quickly as is possible. Northwestern care is never like that.

Disclosures

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.
