Dr. Renner listen carefully to what I had to say about my pain, performed some stretches to rule out certain injuries and did not hesitate to order an x-ray. She prescribed some pain medication that hopefully will give me more relief than over-the-counter medication. I just picked it up an hour ago. Dr. Renner has been my doctor for decades, and it is nice to have her as my PC Dr. with that kind of background and understanding with straightforward discussion . She goes right to the issue and addressed my problem.

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.
