5.0 star star star star starKind, and absolutely AWSOME. Easy to talk to, even personally. She always speaks to me during procedure, which helps me relax, and she does everything to make me comfortable. She listens to my concerns and offers professional answers. She definitely is my personal favorite. She wears double masks. And I feel safe. She's very aware of covid and is meticulous in attire and with all she touches.

5.0 star star star star starPlease refer to the previous question. She knows her field , listened to me, the patient and is genuinely concerned . I wish my primary showed the same level of concern. The doctors are so insulated over there that it is generally frustrating to have to fight my way to be seen or to get a question answered . I'm going to change my primary soon, but that's another story.

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.
