5.0 star star star star starDr Ambler is a perfect for our family. She knows the questions to ask and the way to make a point/offer suggestions without being overbearing. She is always so positive and sends the right messages to my children, who have seen her since they were infants and are now 19, 17, 14, and 12.

5.0 star star star star starI’d rate higher than 10 if I could. Dr. Ambler is a phenomenal physician who not only treats her patients, but cares for the parents as well. She’s makes the office visit not a scary situation for a young child. She is the doctor other physicians should look to for example.

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.

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.
