5.0 star star star star starDr. Roxanna is an outstanding physician, distinguished by her knowledge, humanity, dedication, and attentive follow-up. I am fortunate to have her as the doctor who follows up on my case and who performed the surgery for me.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Garcia was on call the day I went to the emergency room with a diagnosis from a random mri I had. I hadn't been in a hospital in over 23 years when I had my son. She explained the diagnosis which was a maningioma brain tumor and it was sitting on my brain and had to be removed, sooner rather than later. She explained the surgery, the procedure, best and worse case scenarios and I felt I was in very very good hands. She did not sugar coat any of the diagnosis or the surgery, but she explained it with such compassion and care that I felt I was in the hands of a skilled, well trained surgeon. After the surgery she was so sympathetic to my recovery and pain, it made me feel relieved. She made one of the worst experiences of my life turn out to be very easy.

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.
