5.0 star star star star starI reached out to his PA and he got back to me right away. When I was at the appointment he came in and discussed my x-ray results and told me my options. His PA gave me the cortisone shot and I was in my way.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Saltzman was very knowledgeable and showed great care in seeing me. He instilled a confidence I did not have with other doctors. I came in confused and scared and left completely secure that I was in good hands. He explained what the issue was and laid out his plan for addressing my shoulder. He was very supportive and I did not feel like a number as I was treated with dignity and respect. His nurse was also compassionate and walked me through the placement of my sling and next steps as well.

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.
