I don't know yet if she is a good surgeon, but feel like there is a lack of compassion. Endometrial biopsies are painful, but she did not take me seriously when I was having one. They also cause bleeding, but I was not offered a pad. I had questions about upcoming surgery that were not answered.

I felt the doctor was very rushed. I had to fill out many long questionaires. The questions asked were not addressed in my appointment ( which was a video appointment ) In my in person appointment she was again rushed. The fellow found some issues but those issues were not addressed. Because had just had a procedure I did not have the presence of mind to address the findings of the fellow. I would say the care was not well coordinated between providers I saw

Julia Geynisman-Tan, 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.

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.
