For who he is and how the care you receive from him is beyond stellar. I will never go any other Dr with exception to Dr [ ] who I put in the category of being above the best. Those two deserve so much recognition. The hospital should know how lucky they are to have those two on their staff.

Dr. Baird always takes the time necessary for my appointments…I get answers to all my concerns and leave with a plan and necessary RXs. I like the way he ties together my last visit with today’s and hits each detail. Today, when he asked about any travel plans, I had a chance to discuss a long trip next year, he immediately switched into tests and medications needed before hand. Nice!

Disclosures

John S. Baird, 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.
