Given that I was experiencing little pain or restriction moving my limbs (areas most affected by my recent fall), I thought the therapist would run through a cursory review of exercises. I was wrong. I believe he was as thorough as necessary: I certainly didn't feel rushed and was given every opportunity to test motions/actions that I would encounter in daily life. And all the while in a manner that suggested he was at least as interested in getting me to normalcy as I was. Just as important, he told me what he thought l should expect as far as recovery. Which is more than I got from the doctor at Immediate Care.

Again, I can't say enough about Sam. I'm good at reading when people are present and when people sincerely care and give you good sound advice as to what it's really going on. Excellent I feel comfortable and I feel comfortable continuing my therapy there.

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.
