5.0 star star star star starWe only met her for the first time today. Immediately felt comfortable. She was so positive; listened to everything being said and would interject with her thoughts and how she thought I might try a few things to relieve a couple of the issues I’d been having. Very uplifting! Awesome team!

5.0 star star star star starDr. Julia's guidance has been crucial for me on this journey so far. I started out in the hospital in the emergency room, moved to inpatient care, now in outpatient care. I will soon move back to inpatient care for a week. It has been hectic for me and my life has been flipped on its head. But Dr. Julia has been there with me every step of the way. Shes given me perspective and helped me to believe in myself that I can overcome this and still live the life I want to. I know I am lucky to have such a great team around me and Dr. Julia is a central part of that. She understands me.

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.
