I have trusted Dr. Starr with my care for almost 25 years, including my pregnancy and the delivery of my son, and I have consistently received outstanding, compassionate care throughout that time. She is patient, truly listens, never makes me feel rushed, and clearly explains sensitive or complex topics so I feel informed and comfortable with my decisions.

She is knowledgeable and explains things in an easy way to understand. I've been going to her now for almost 23 years. I now consider her a friend, and she always remembers everything about me in my family. She's the best. I almost switched doctors when we moved to the suburbs, but realized I couldn't do that after visiting her. She's really great.

Ann Starr has been my doctor for over 20+ years. Her level of care and concern is the best among all my other Northwestern doctors. She remembers little personal things about me that I find incredibly comforting and her no nonsense approach is always appreciated. She never rushes me and always takes the extra time when I need it. I feel very fortunate to have her caring for me.

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.
