5.0 star star star star starI got a chance to meet my new cardiologist, Dr. Patel, who was very intent on answering all of my questions in a very thorough way, and never made me feel that I was being rushed. I would’ve liked to see a more thorough analysis of my feet and legs since this was my first time meeting him, but other than that he spent a great deal of time, talking me through all the points of interest that I needed to know. Another thing that I really love is the integration each doctor that was involved was familiar with the information that was debriefed by the previous doctor.

Disclosures
Ravi B. Patel, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.
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.
