I can't say enough good things about Dr. Kohlhapp. My daughter has special needs and sees a lot of doctors. She was so kind and patient with my daughter. She was very thorough in going over all of my daughters rather complex medical issues. My daughter absolutely lived her. My wife was on the phone during the visit and loved her as well!! I'll make it unanimous....i loved her as well. Appreciate greatly all the work she did to help get us in so quickly. Look forward to her care for our daughter. Thank you Dr Kohlhapp

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.
