Efficient, empathetic, and thorough. I really appreciate dr. Setzo. When you're not feeling great it's helpful to have an empathetic Doctor who in this case was willing to listen to me rant. More to the point he figured out the problem and addressed it. He was willing to go beyond the presenting problem to see if he could help with other issues. I will keep going to this location receive care from him.

Dr. Szeto was very competent, calm and reassuring. He made an awkard situation less so and reassured me throughout the visit. He went well above and beyond calling multiple sites to ensure I got the imaging I needed and was so kind and understanding throughout my visit. He is an excellent physician and a very kind person, and Nothwestern is is lucky to have them on their team, as well as his patients.

Disclosures

Spencer Szeto, 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.
