I did not see him much but I was impressed with surgery procedures. I saw him briefly at surgery. The only thing that was not explained in detail is to why & how long I belong on this very expensive pill [RX]. And also budesonide. Like what is the duration? I know [RX] has to do with enzymes. But he is an excellent surgeon.

Dr Zubair, communicated extremely well. I knew exactly what to expect and was given very clear instructions both prior to procedure as well as after. You can tell when a physician is very detailed and thorough and that is exactly what Dr. Zubair showed. Dr. Zubair has exceptional bed side manner. I would also like to say that his medical assistant Lauren is kind, understanding and works well with you to ensure you feel comfortable and stress free while preparing for your procedure. Hands down Dr. Zubair and team are the absolute best and will refer everyone I know to him and team!

Most of what he did for me. I was unconscious but before these 2 procedures he did them the day after talking to me because of how important he thought it was for me to get the done soon. I think that he took out some precancerous polyps which if they were not taken out could have developed into cancer So he prevented me up to now from getting cancer which I did not realize right after the procedure was as big of a deal as it is. I am very thankful to him for this.

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.
