3.0 star star star star_border star_borderHe is never on time. Today my appointment was scheduled for 11:00AM. 12:16 he arrived. I tatally understand that there could be a delay, but 1+ hour is a little to much. I also like to bring to your attention that this is not the first time that I waited over an hour for Dr. Chae.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Chae has been very attentive and is following my progress closely. I am very confident that he is doing all he can to prevent any recurrence of my lung cancer growth. And he and his staff are monitoring me regularly to make sure that I am tolerating my chemotherapy well enough.

5.0 star star star star starHe’s definitely a 10 but I wish we did not have to wait over an hour for appointment time. He’s an outstanding doctor. He reads scans immediately & is excellent in following up I believe he is overbooked & that’s not fair to sick patients to have to wait.

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.
