5.0 star star star star starI would give her 100 rating if I could. First and foremost, Dr. Szmuilowicz is a phenomenal doctor. She listens to your concerns, she answers questions (or follows up if she doesn't have the answer right away), she tells you what your are doing well and what we can do to improve my health. It's always an interactive conversation about being healthy. Also, Dr. S is my most relied-upon member of my care team. Two years, ago, my Northwestern PCP left the practice. I have no primary care support as I cannot get into see anyone. Luckily I still have Dr. S.

5.0 star star star star starI have been with Dr. Szmuilowicz for several years now. She completely turned my life around with her care and will be my doctor for the rest of my life. I will not go to another endocrinologist other than her.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Szmuilowicz is great. She looks over all my tests results, be it bloodwork or imaginings, and talks about the results and what would be the better approach for me to follow for my particular situation. I always look forward to seeing her and discussing my options. She's the best.
Disclosures

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.
