I thought she was wonderful. This was my first visit after an assault in 2021. She was patient, understanding of my anxiety induced neuroticism, and kind. Empathy is huge and she's got it in spades.

Dr. Minaya listened to my concerns around pain management for my IUD. I was extremely anxious given past experiences, and she ensured I had an ultrasound and numbing. In my appointment prior, she looked at my past records and asked a lot of questions which made me feel really taken care of.

Disclosures

Ismely F. Minaya, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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.
