Had a pain issue with my right knee. We were able to get an appointment with DR. Glasgow in a timely manner. His assistant did a good job asking questions to get detailed information on the knee problem. Easy to talk to. Glasgow had X rays taken, knew the problem when he walked in the room, applied the medication, and told us what to do and what not to do. Fast and easy to understand. Kept us at ease by explaining each step as he proceeded.

Disclosures

Steven G. Glasgow, 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.
