5.0 star star star star starShe was very energetic, cheerful and welcoming, She and her staff worked well together. She looked at skin areas of my concern and found addition areas. She worked very efficiently with her staff removing sections for pathology and dressed wounded skin area. She told me what and when to expect the pathology report, provided me with written results of today's meeting. And depending on results, what I could expect. I felt in good hands with her.

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.
