5.0 star star star star starIn the role of his profession, he has established himself with the patient exceptionally well in the knowledge and area of concentration focused solely on the needs of the patient. He covers all concerns without leaving you with unanswered questions. He follows through immediately with follow-up appointments.

5.0 star star star star starMy prior comments especially apply for Lesniak. I dropped into his work schedule unannounced and he cleared everything as if I’d always been there. He gave me time and answered all my questions regardless of their relevance. He made me feel safe without dumbing things down, which was important for me. I could not have felt safer in someone’s hands.

1.0 star star_border star_border star_border star_borderNegligence, gave us the wrong information about my mother's scan results, because he didn't take the time to slow down, stop and be present in patient care. The most important thing in health care is reviewing a file to reduce negligence and malpractice, just disappointed.

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.
