Colleen was collaborative and respectful, while she diligently evaluated my health challenges during the visit. We covered a lot of ground in a short period of time, and I feel like I am heading in the right direction with Northwestern going forward. When potential issues were identified today, she took quick action to get the imaging done immediately so we now know the scope of the problem. In addition, I am comfortable with the Cardiac Oncologist that Colleen recommended, and she made the effort to get an initial appointment scheduled. Lastly, when I told Colleen that I was having difficulty reaching the person who schedules a follow-up echocardiogram, she walked me over to the person's desk to make sure I was able to get everything scheduled.

Colleen was very thorough. Explained everything and took her time to be sure I understood what she had to say. I felt she was truly concerned about my health issues. Also, she called me back that same day about the blood test I took that afternoon. This was my first experience with NM Cardiology, I'm very impressed and I hope she will continue to be my contact person.

Disclosures

Colleen B. Bilecki, APRN reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2024.

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.
