He had great bedside manner and is very personable. Even though he’s the top surgeon in Chicago for a lynx surgery, you would never know it. He seems very humble and seemed to be nice to all the staff.

Dr. Fronza has been the surgeon who treated me for a prior issue. His care during an extended stay and his interaction with my wife during that experience confirmed he is who we wanted for this procedure. We not only appreciate his talent but also cherish our relationship.

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.
