Have always had great experiences with Dr. Schulman until today. He made me feel stupid as a parent and made me feel dumb for being my child in for appointment. He did not listen to my concerns around my daughters health and didn’t seem to take the appointment seriously. He did not speak or examine my child when we were there. The appointment felt like a waste of time when I was told by the office to come in for the appointment.

I was recommended to see him by my sister-in-law who loves him for her kids. Unfortunately, for us, his approach to care will not work with our family. I understand the central scheduling office scheduled my son's appointment incorrectly, but I still did not like this doctor's dismissiveness of my sons' diagnosed condition. He refused to read or even look at the neuropsychologist's report from his testing, and instead told my son that 'those tests just mean someone was looking for a diagnosis in order to bill my insurance.' That may be true in some cases, but you don't need to tell that to a child, let alone completely try to undermine the efforts of other professionals. Also, how could you assume that without even looking at the testing report? I shouldn't have even stayed for the remainder of the appointment. He handed me back the paperwork at the end and said I could keep it since he won't look at it. I left it at the office since I have copies, but I doubt that will cause even a blip on his radar. We will find another provider for our children.

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.
