5.0 star star star star starShe is patient and kind and listens to my questions and considers my requests. That is invaluable as a survivor. I read up on her history and really appreciate her research. Ovarian Cancer needs so much more attention. Thank you Dr. Matei.

4.0 star star star star star_borderTransition was not handled well. I think she was overwhelmed when I became her patient - Im guessing by the number of patients she inherited after Dr Lurains sudden departure. Im comfortable with her now and find her to be a nice person.

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.
