5.0 star star star star starI like dr Lee, very straight to the point and doesn’t beat around. Wish most docs would slow down a little but I get they’re all on tight schedules daily and have to move on to the next one fast.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Lee asked many questions of me and attempt ascertain why I was having problems. We discussed options, telling me some tests we could run, but he didn’t believe it was going to help to ascertain the problem. I agreed with him that in this case, we can wait it out another month or two months and see if things got better because I’ve had this kind of condition over three years ago.

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderDid not listen, talked over- offered recommendations that I had already tried with my primary, and which were not found to get results for me as a person. Waste of time and money.

5.0 star star star star starDoctor Lee asked a lot of questions to understand my situation and reviewed the test results I provided. I never felt like he was rushing. He offered a solution to my problem which my prior gastroenterologist did not.

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.
