For my first visit I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Bhatia. He was friendly, personable, he explained things very clearly , so I could understand everything and next steps. His "bedside" manners were superior. I was so lucky to get an appt with Dr. Bhatia. I will definitely be telling everyone about him and his practice. When you have a Dr. that is kind and caring you cant ask for anything more.

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.
