I have been seeing Dr. Hussain for 11 years and he has been a rock for me. Remembers more than I do, always sees the big picture, provides more than just a med check.

Dr. Hussain is the best psychiatrist I have ever had....and by a very large margin He takes and references notes, he leaves space and time for me, he is insightful and asks pertinent questions, he listens to me and takes everything I am saying as important and gives me a say in my treatment, yes he prescribes medication.....but that is the end result of the all inclusive appointment. I cannot recommend Dr. Hussain highly enough

Disclosures

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.
