I had a consultation with Dr Borja. He knew why I was and there and want me to explain in my words my symptoms. He took his time and explained everything and show me what my cyst in my liver looked like. He went step by step on surgery that he will be performing. I felt like I will be in good hands when I left.

Dr. Borja is a gifted surgeon who, along with his staff, made me feel educated and comfortable with the details and risks associated with my procedure. Their demeanor and caring erased any apprehension and anxiety that I had prior to initially them in his downtown office.

Doctor Borja-Cacho talked and listened to us. He repeatedly asked us if we had any questions after explaining to us our situation in very simple, easy to understand terms. We knew he would spend as much time as we needed with him. He made us feel so much better telling us he would have a comprehensive treatment plan and he would take good care of us.

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.
