5.0 star star star star starDr. Karna's love and passion for her job does not go unnoticed. She connects with both my kids personalities and knows them like they are her own. She is kind, calm and SO intelligent! She keeps me at bay when my nerves are high when my kids are sick and I wouldn't trust anyone else to take care of them.

5.0 star star star star starOur first visit with Dr Karna and I already like her more than the pediatrician my sons were seeing for 3 years. She listens so well and helps address my concerns. Her nurse was very sweet and heartwarming to my son.

5.0 star star star star starDr Karna is god sent. She is caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, empathic, and very professional. She very good with kids and knows how to make them feel comfortable and even open up to her, even when they feel they’re worse. She also makes me as parents feel reassured and gives a game plan for care so I know what’s coming next. Dr Karna has a very open personality and it makes it so easy to talk to her and ask her opinions/advice.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Karna was kind and patient and listened to our concerns. Our baby ended up not needing anything done or any treatment but just explaining to her what I was worried about and having a conversation about it was reassuring and totally worth the trip. I later had to message for a note for my baby’s daycare and she got a note back to me within an hour or two.
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.
