Rachel is one of the NW staff who exhibits the care and sensitivity that I mentioned. Being a patient in the colorectal clinic is hard enough. You want to be seen by someone who understands your concerns and hesitancy about exams. She listens and that is important to me. She is also very encouraging.

Rachel was outstanding and I would recommend her to anyone needing a compassionate and caring professional. She introduced herself and took a very comprehensive history. After that she explained in detail what the next step would be. I felt very comfortable speaking with her. She asked a colorectal surgeon to consult on my case. He was very very pleasant and I forgot his name, but I would recommend him also. The whole experience was scary but I felt at ease with the care I received.

Disclosures

Rachel E. Hendee, PA-C reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2025.

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.
