I was somewhat disappointed that my final post op visit was with Dr. Witkowski's assistants and that I didn't get to speak with Dr. Witkowski directly. However, I understand that he no doubt had a heavy schedule that morning. A doctor of his caliber is much in demand, I'm sure. I am so grateful for this accomplished surgeon and the miracle he performed to assist my healing from the broken left femur.

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.
