5.0 star star star star starDr Menichella is not only an incredible neurologist in her knowledge and expertise, she is compassionate. She always gives us as much time as we need to address our concerns and questions. We never feel like she is rushing out to see the next patient, and we feel totally confidant in her assessments and recommendations.

5.0 star star star star starMr. Menichella is a rare gem. She is warm but yet most professional. She is an excellent listener and makes it clear that she wants to understand the patient as a person--a whole person. I would guess that she enjoys putting together puzzles as a hobby. I felt as if she was trying to assemble a puzzle--who and what was I--as a person. Doing so would allowh her to best treat me and understand the scope of my neuropathy and what could be contributing factors in addition to the primary cause. What else was going on with me--not a number--not an appointment--me as a person. I would recommend her without reservation.

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.
