The 1st surgery had to be corrected by a 2nd surgery thankfully that I'm doing better now but if I hadn't have fell and got a CT scan due to the fall the internal bleeding would've been overlooked, to the surgeon's credit he did correct issue with 2 nd surgery.

I already have recommended him to friends and family. I was incredibly impressed with his knowledge, his professionalism, his caring and his communication skills. I was a new patient, yet he carefully and clearly reviewed my CT scan with me. He explained everything well and put me at ease. He stated that I did not need surgery at this time( a great relief) , but if at some point I did need a hernia repair, I would feel very comfortable and confident with Dr Issa conducting the surgery. He came highly recommended by Dr Sam Granieri who has been my PCP for 30 years. Not only is Dr Issa a good doctor, but he is a nice person as well! [Patient's Name]

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.
