He sits and listens to all I have to say. He asks the right questions and elaborates on my situation, I like that when I told I couldn't be seen in 5 months even with symptoms that he told me what to say the next time and that that was not right and I should have been seen.

I received no preparation information for my colonoscopy other than a generic preparing for my outpatient surgery. I even asked the anesthesiologist nurse who called for the pre-visit check-in to send me something and I never received anything. I had to go onto the NMH website and find the information for myself. In MyChart the time for my appointment wasn't even listed. Not a good experience leading up to the day of the visit probably a rating of 5-6. The procedure experience itself was a '10'.

I would and have, already recommended NM, Dr. Frank Martini my GI specialist to two other family members. He listens closely and considers all other possible health issues and does all proper assessment testing, before moving forward. He knows his specialization area better than any other GI doctor's I have had in the past. He explains in detail if asked, and his staff is alway on top of every call or concern. They take as much time as a patient needs to communicate. He has a wonderful and knowledgable staff which makes all the difference for a doctor's rapport. A perfect team when you're not well, is a blessing. I wouldn't change a thing.

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.
