5.0 star star star star starHelene is, as always, just the best. She makes the experience feel so much more human & connected to my personal life & not just making it feel like she's talking at you. Helene really has a way of tying in the psychological components of the therapy too in ways you may not have considered yourself but it all make sense in the end

5.0 star star star star starHelene is incredibly good at her job. She puts patients at ease in what could be an uncomfortable type of appointment. And what she does, helps women overcome an issue they didn't think could be fixed. I am so grateful Christin [last name] referred me to Helene. I highly recommend Helene Bengtsson.

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.
