I had a great experience with Dr. Dolen's plastic surgery team. The entire staff was incredibly kind, caring, and professional throughout the process. Dr. Dolen took the time to thoroughly explain everything for my son's recent burn on his skin, which helped me feel comfortable and informed every step of the way for my son's healing process. Dr. Dolen also recommended the correct scar treatment to help improve my 4 year old appearance of his skin, and we really appreciated the support and care. I highly recommend their office to anyone in need of compassionate and knowledgeable care.

Dr. Dolen took the time to listen to all my concerns and answered every question with patience and expertise. The consultation was through, and I felt confident in the plan we created together. I got RF microneedling to my face and neck. The procedure went smoothly and I'm so happy with the results. I am going back for laser rejuvenation. I highly recommend Dr. Dolen to anyone considering plastic surgery or aesthetic procedure. He and his whole team prioritize patient care and safety.

Disclosures

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.
