Lindsay is caring and very knowledgeable. She went the extra mile to help me with my new Cochlear upgrade, setting up my auxiliary devices to work with the new model - Cochlear Nucleus 8. She advised me about my resound hearing aid and we will follow up at a later date. Thanks Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Kandl is fantastic. She’s very helpful and proactive. I was having issues with my new cochlear device and she called cochlear directly to resolve and after their attempts were unsuccessful, asked them to overnight me a new processor. Lastly, she handled sending back the malfunctioning processor. I felt like I truly had a hearing advocate.

I answered that on the question before. She can explain my questions so I feel like I can really use my hearing aids. I never feel like she is frustrated by my questions. She demonstrates how to fix the volume by using my phone. She always checks at the beginning of the visit to make sure they are working properly. She is a real asset to Northwestern’s Department.

Disclosures

Lindsay M. Kandl, AuD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
