Will Upton has been consistently, in my knowledge base, keeping me informed, making me comfortable, responding promptly to all of my many questions while providing top-level service, consideration and understanding. He listens to my questions and concerns, answers if he knows, and finds the answers if he doesn't know. Very trustworthy, positive, and attentive.

William is a pleasure to work with. He allows me to explain in my layman's terms how I feel without talking over me then gives an explanation that I can understand and relate to. Very professional! Excellent communicator. Please don't ever change.

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.
