I am genuinely incredibly impressed with Dr. Simon. He is a doctor who allows me to take my treatment in the direction I feel most comfortable with, under his best guidance and solutions. His mannerisms are polite, friendly, and education. The way he speaks is TO you, WITH you, not AT you. As a trauma survivor whom struggles feeling comfortable around men, I can say with absolute certainty that Dr. Simon is someone who is safe to work with and able to trust with your care. He is both an expert at the medicinal field and putting his patients at ease.

See my reply above. I saw Dr. Simon the next day after a serious fall landing my head and face to land on a cinder block resulting in 14 stitches above my eye and a broken nose in 2 places and a nite in the emergency room. He fit me into an appointment the very next day and because of the severity I had surgery the day after the visit. He spent time explaining tge pros and cons of my need for the surgery so that I could make a decision that I felt confidence that in making. Every appointment after that resulted in my following his instructions and have resulted in my appearance and function greatly improved. He has that rare combination of professional kindness every physician should have.

Disclosures

Patrick E. Simon, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
