5.0 star star star star starExcellent, cares about the impact of OT on my entire body ( neck and back in particular). Chooses exercises to improve dexterity and muscle building techniques very carefully based on individual patient needs. Careful to consider benefits vs pain and swelling. I cannot speak more highly of Dana Silver.

5.0 star star star star starKind, empathic, accommodating for my medical needs, expert in her field,... the work in her office and provided for me to do at home is very helpful. Additionally she made recommendations for adaptive devices at our second appointment. This has also been very helpful! Dana is the first OT that has spent the time and shared her knowledge to help me function better.

5.0 star star star star starI had two in home OT's when I first got sick. I could not move at the time. I realize I was limited but they provided no support or recommendations. At the time I could not do any self care activities. Dana provided more help and ideas in one session then they provided when I was in great need. I look forward to my next visit and I am hopeful to will make improvements with her help. She was also empathic, caring and professional. My background is complex and long to read through. She was fully prepared and had done her " homework". I really appreciated that.

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.
