She is very thorough and listens very well and is very knowledgeable and professional and kind. In September, when my x-ray did not show anything and knowing that I was ill, she sent me to ER where they diagnosed my pneumonia only through the CT scan. And at this most recent appointment, even though my urinalysis looked good she was sure to culture at as well as did an exam and recommended that I call my specialist, and further, she called me in AM when the culture yielded an unusual bacteria consistent with potentially dangerous bacterial infection. In sum, she is the person that you want at your walk-in clinic and as a credit to the business and a godsend to her patients. This is why I always choose Glenview walk in for my care during regular hours, and if my PCP is not available because you office and she are just that good

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.
