I've been seeing Dr. Fox for years. He makes me feel comfortable and isn't judgmental. When my son turned 18, he also saw Dr. Fox. Dr. Fox is able to give Cortizone shots. I have trouble with my shoulders. He was able to give me a shot to help. I didn't have to schedule an appointment with a different doctor. He was able to help me immediately. He also gives me options to think about.

David J. Fox, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
