As I said above Dr Dietch was awesome, kind, friendly and understanding. I asked him about the AWAKE program and my interest in it and he had no hesitation and said Yes, he asked why I wanted to go that direction I gave my reasons and there was no pushback, simply incredible. Some doctors I have met in the past have had egos and even their own agenda it seems then get mad at me for asking questions, but not here. Dr. Dietch Is a good guy. I cannot show in text just how much I appreciate him for his professionalism, kindness and respect towards me as a patient, 10/10 -[Patient's Name]

Disclosures

Zachary C. Dietch, 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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
