Dr Capezio is quite thorough and not intimidating, which makes it easier for patients to understand the medical decisions made in their best interest. I am sorry she’s cutting back to two days a week, but I am also grateful that she is able to take some time off for herself as well. She has been an amazing doctor. As far as I’m concerned and as long as I’m able to see her, I will continue to do that.

Dr. Capezio has transformed my life. At our first appointment, she listened professionally and empathically to all my concerns — and there were many! She changed my treatment and I am in remission and pain free. At my second appointment, she talked me through more options and explained how to fine tune my treatment in relation to my general health. She is genuinely interested in listening to her patient’s concerns and never minds talking through an explanation so that he/she/they are informed and reassured.

To find a doctor like Dr. Jennifer Capezio is ultra rare. I have never been to a doctor more caring and thorough, not just about her specialty, she cares about my other unrelated health issue as well. I didn’t have questions but she said she wanted to go over things even though I didn’t have questions about it. I am so thankful she did. She explained things about my tests that helped me not only understand them but inspired me to be proactive. I could make changes in my lifestyle that would make my test results better. I left her office knowing that Dr Capezio completely cared about me as a person and spent so much time with me going over every aspect of me. I also left her office so much more knowledgeable and going into the appointment I didn’t think I had anything more to learn. Most importantly, I left her office so motivated to be a healthier person and she didn’t just say exercise, like most, she really ask me what I can do and when and what I liked to do and how I can fit it into my schedule— again - she is rare - she is really special! She takes the time to make sure she knows you so she can help you. Dr. Capezio is exceptional.

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.

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.
