Monica Joyce is easy to talk to. She listens and thus far her ideas and the path I'm on is working very well. Even though she's a doctor and extremely busy ,she makes you feel like you're the only thing that matters when you're talking to her. She will be missed when she retires someday.

Monica Joyce is great! She knows so much about diabetes, is so helpful in sharing her insights and knowledge on how to manage diabetes. I am frustrated that it is very difficult to get an appointment with her in Lake Forest. I used to see her about every five weeks but now that is almost impossible. She needs another day per week in Lake Forest to allow her regular patients to see her on a regular and timely basis. I cannot go to Glenview as it is not handicapped accessible

Disclosures

Monica Joyce, RD 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.
