5.0 star star star star starDr. Zielinski has been my doctor since 2006. He's gotten me through so many medical issues thanks to his ability to figure out what's wrong and know what to do to fix it. And always with the most minimally invasive options for the fixes.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Zielinski has a great bedside manner and is extremely thorough. He is more than willing to work with all other doctors on patients team. Further Dr. Z was persistent above having my mother get a lung scan every year since she quit smoking. My mother was recently diagnosed with small cell lung cancer caught extremely early. Both my mom’s oncologist and radiologist both said the cancer was caught VERY early. They hope for a full recovery and advised that scan likely saved her life.

5.0 star star star star starDr Zielinski is very experienced and I trust his judgement. He is very efficient, but also takes the time to get to know you as a patient. He explains and educates. He includes you in decision making. Wonderful doctor!

5.0 star star star star starDr Zielinski has been my PCP for over 20 years. Thru the years I’ve found him to be intelligent, thoughtful, dedicated and one who presents practical options in an understandable way. Most recently he displayed a high level of compassion - both visually and verbally- when I told him of the passing of my younger sister. Add that to his many excellent qualities.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Zielinski is the best. He is knowledgeable, he listens, he answers all questions, and he responds to all inquiries in a very timely manner. Of the many health care providers with which I have had contact over many years, I have the most confidence that he will recommend the best course of treatment and is up to date.

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.
