5.0 star star star star starDr. Karimpour was amazing. He was friendly compassionate and took time to explain things to us. He never rushed us out the door like some doctors will. He was positive and we felt that he was going to fight along side us to heal my husband.

5.0 star star star star starWe had a consultation visit with Dr Karimpour to learn more about radiation w/ hormone therapy. Dr Karimpour has an exceptionally calm and reassuring manner that immediately put us at ease. He explained radiation and hormone therapy clearly, patiently, and without condescension. He took his time answering all of our questions, repeating information when needed so we fully understood the treatment timeline and what to expect. His honesty about outcomes in the overall trajectory of prostate cancer treatments was truly appreciated. Most importantly he made sure that we remain in control of our decisions. He provided facts, not pressure and never tried to sway us in one direction. We left our appointment feeling informed, supported, and confident in our next steps. We are grateful for his professionalism, compassion, and clarity.

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.
