After my previous professional Kirk Bergmark retired I was very worried about getting a new person. Kathleen escalona could not have been more caring and helpful. She is a true professional and I am really glad that she was able to take me for a patient. I feel so much better just knowing I can count on her to help me with my ongoing mental health issues.

She listened to everything I had to say and gave me advice. I can take 1 day at a time and not worry about things I have no control over I am very grateful she took over my care after Kirk Bergmark retired. He was my therapist for 9 years and I took his retirement very hard. He was an excellent member of your team and really cared about his patients. I am very grateful for Kathleen. She also cares about her patients and I am thankful to have her as a therapist. She cares about her patients. I would highly recommend her. I feel comfortable and confident in her care and would recommend her all the time

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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
