5.0 star star star star starBecause he has great bedside skills and he promotes confidence in treatment recommendations. Like the above, Neurosurgery Clinic reasons that were listed. I feel that I am a valued person and his only patient during my visit. This is really important to me, because at my age, I feel that some care providers are tolerant, in lieu of helpful. I highly respect him and have the utmost trust in his abilities to provide my care. He explains everything in a manner that can be understood; not as if he were in a hurry, or I was not able to understand him. I could go on and on about Dr Caron and highly recommend him.

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.
