5.0 star star star star starWe have gone to Dr. Kalyan office for 5 years. I wasn't allowed to go with my husband this time. We both are very distressed about this! Why? This journey involves BOTH of us. Three months ago I was allowed to be with my husband!

5.0 star star star star starI said it before: Dr Kalyan is INCREDIBLE. She's warm, she's compassionate, she LISTENS, she talks TO you, not AT you. Dr. Kalyan is empathetic, she's a keen observer of the patient's issues. She explains in layman's terms all one needs to know about pancreas cancer............but she does it with hope, with positivity and with a smile and a warmth that makes the patient feel cared FOR and cared ABOUT.

5.0 star star star star starLove Dr Kalyan! She patiently listens to all my questions and provides thorough answers. She is genuinely concerned for my well being and follows up after my procedures. I often call Dr Kalyans office with any concerns and her nurses promptly return my call with a solution. She is a wonderful doctor and Im fortunate to have her as my oncologist.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Kalyan was very clear in answering all of the questions I had with regard to the procedures I had undergone early last month. She took adequate time to discuss possible future examinations and arranged for me to have blood work done later this month. Her manner was very patient and caring.

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.
