Dr. Linder put my mind at ease about the possibility of kidney stones being the source of my lower back pains, rather than over strenuous exercising I had been doing at the gym. He told me to give the healing process more time to resolve the pain.

Dr Linder was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to my complaints during my visit with him. He was very with his examinations and his explanations for what was ailing me, and, if that weren't enough, he was so friendly and nice while doing so. He is truly a genuine doctor and the experience could not have been any better. Thank you so much Dr Linder!

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.
