Upon meeting Dr. Isakova, I immediately felt comfortable. It was apparent she was very aware of my health history and reason for my visit. In addition, Dr. encouraged my participation in the review of my health records. Dr. Isakova is very thorough and I left the visit with a clear understanding of my heath status associated with the reason for my visit. Dr. Isakova has an approach that I believe any pt would be comfortable with and appreciate.

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.
