I recently had the pleasure of an appointment with Dr. Fuqua at Huntley NW Behavioral Health, and I felt compelled to share my overwhelmingly positive experience. Dr. Fuqua's attentiveness was truly remarkable; he listened carefully to my concerns and demonstrated a genuine level of care that far surpassed my expectations. This, coupled with the efficient and welcoming environment of the facility itself, made for an exceptional visit. I am sincerely grateful for Dr. Fuqua's expertise and compassion. He listened more than was expected and provided helpful feedback, he went above and beyond what I've experienced at other psychiatrist's offices.

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.
