I've been to this immediate care over the years, and never come across her. She was amazing! She took the time to listen to me, and then to share her thoughts, she then had even thought about extra things and had come back to re- discuss them with me. I appreciated that she spoke to me like a person. She didn't make me feel dumb for asking questions, she truly made sure that I understood what she was saying and any questions that I had she answered. She really was just so easy to talk to and made the situation so much better.

I was one of Dr Marcel Hoffman's patients for 15 plus years. Sadly he passed away. I am still working on a new GP. Waiting time to get in is 5 or 6 months. Dr. Franki endocrinologist requires a referral for new patients. That's what I was after. Dr Watson did the referral for me. Dr F requires quite a list of info even though also a Northwestern doctor. I don't understand why.

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.

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.
