Every doctor/patient relationship is unique. As an MS patient for the last 22 years, I hv visited my share of neurologists. I was with NW for 14 yrs but left after I felt my treat plan was suffering. After a hospital stay, Dr. Bevan was recommended. I was skeptical. I had had a few bad experiences with other docs. Dr. Bevan renewed my faith! She is a terrific doctor. She listens to you, explains plan of care and actually asks you about it! I cannot speak high enough praise for Dr. Bevan. She is a DOCTOR!

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.
