I had a wonderful experience during my visit with APRN Patel. From the moment I arrived, she was extremely professional and made me feel comfortable right away. She listened carefully to all of my concerns and took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy for me to understand. She was very thorough in her care and answered all of my questions patiently, which helped me feel confident about my treatment. Her kindness and attention to detail truly stood out, and I felt that she genuinely cared about my well being. Thanks to her excellent care, I left feeling reassured and grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate healthcare provider.

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.
