Dr. Guerrero treated me with such respect & compassion during my month-long stay in the hospital. She encouraged me and helped me to get through the 8 surgeries that saved my life. She's professional but also approachable and I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon to have during this most unexpected and difficult time in my life.

Dr. Guerrero was generous with her time answering all my questions and easing my concerns. This is an outstanding human being and well respected by all those who work with her. I had an important in-country family trip planned and Dr. Guerrero specifically squeezed me in to an early appointment to examine me and give me the green light to travel. She has also made it easy to reach her if I experience any issues.

Disclosures

Veronica T. Guerrero, 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.
