Dr. Khan was great - knowledgeable, prompt, took time to explain things, felt thorough, answered my questions, brought in current public health information, willing to let me call back if I get a positive at home COVID test. I was feeling so sick I didn't want to get out of bed to go into see a doctor, but it helps to get the advice - including to do a decongestant over a cough suppressant. Very helpful for those of us who aren't doctors! I love that you offer this urgent care option, thank you.

Disclosures

Shaemah Z. Khan, DO 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.
