Dr. Hussain is a doctor. I would recommend to anyone that is seeking or in need of a specialist in this particular area. Although it's not always easy to discuss certain types of medical issues with others , Dr Hussain does an incredible job of creating an environment that allows for you to be comfortable, and in fact, hopeful of what is available and factor options for yourself to address things you may not feel are truly able to be addressing this fashion. Dr. Hussain took over my psychiatric care he ultimately empowered helped me manage my own mental health needs in a very reasonable and realistic way. As a result of his care the quality of my help overall has improved in ways I wouldn't have deemed possible.

Dr. Hussain has been able to treat me through the biggest challenges of my adult life. While always leading me with compassion he also is honest and a pleasure to work with. I am forever grateful for him as I do not know what my life would've looked liked had I not gotten treatment from him. I've improved vastly over the past few years and enjoy my life with his help. Prior to seeing him I was so depressed I was ready to give up. While being treated I've taken back control of my life instead of depression and anxiety winning. He is by far one of the best psychiatrist I've ever worked with.

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.
