In my recent follow-up visit with Dr. Michael Shapiro after my surgery, from the moment I walked in, Dr. Shapiro was warm and welcoming, making me feel at ease. He took the time to thoroughly review my recovery progress and answered all of my questions with patience and clarity. His willingness to listen to my concerns and provide detailed explanations truly exemplifies what a great doctor should be. I felt supported and cared for throughout the entire visit, and it was clear that Dr. Shapiro is genuinely invested in his patients' well-being. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable physician. Thank you, Dr. Shapiro, for your exceptional care!

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.
