Let me just say, I am SO glad I saw her. I came in there and she walked in immediately asking how she could help me. She listened to everything I said and validated that it was good I came in and when asking about my previous colonoscopy and endoscopy, I said they were normal and I had no idea what was happening on my body. Dr. Bock took a look at the records and was SHOCKED to find that they did not show up normal, they were ABNORMAL! It’s not confirmed I have Celiac 100%, but it makes sense and I am so so grateful she listened to me and was there for me to help find out what’s going on. She said that she was going to help me find out what’s going on, even if it meant sending me to a specialist. Dr. Bock made me feel like I wasn’t crazy, she made me feel listened too and like I was important. She is an AMAZING doctor!!!

Disclosures

Kathleen M. Bock, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
