Dr. Karacic has been our children's pediatrician for over 20 years. She's smart, empathetic, thorough, and professional. Also, she communicates well. Even my teenage sons have felt comfortable with her. They would be fine with her being their doctor, even as they become young adults.

Dr Karacic was exceptional during our ad hoc visit. She listened to my concerns, did a thorough check and offered advice on not only the purpose of the visit (eye infection) but other small issues we were having with our infant.

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.
