He was thorough, listened carefully and seemed to care about my comfort and valued my concerns. During exam was respectful of my pain level, while explaining thoroughly all his concerns about my symptoms and the relevance of my condition and need for further investigation into my problems. He explained his decision about the need for further exploration and treatment of the problem, what the next procedure would entail, issues that could arise and possible treatments necessary following this. He took time to make me comfortable with the decision to proceed with scheduling the procedures and this gave me confidence that I was in good hands.

Disclosures

Christopher J. Berry, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
