5.0 star star star star starShe was calm, clear and compassionate. She listened to our concerns so carefully. She formulated an action plan which gave us peace. When we left, my son and I looked at each other and said "Now there is someone who is in exactly the right profession."

5.0 star star star star starJust amazing. Professional, caring and did her homework before our first visit. She is a compassionate listener with great perception. She knows how to communicate with a supportive and kind demeanor. I'm one of those who go to a therapy once and never again. Not this time! The key is that I'm still thinking about our conversation. She is kind. Kindness leads to confidence. Confidence leads to hope. Thanks, I'll be there next time!

Disclosures
Megan E. Hirschel, PA-C reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.
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.
