4.0 star star star star star_borderI’m sure he’s an excellent practitioner but he came to see me prior to the procedure after I received some of the sedation so I was pretty drowsy & they said he spoke to me afterwards but I have no memory of it.

5.0 star star star star starThe doctor eased my concerns and explained everything to me in a way I could understand it. Plus would see him as a primary doctor if I were able to. He did not make what could be an uncomfortable visit weird or awkward in any way and was extremely nice.

5.0 star star star star starHe listened to all of my concerns and recommended the procedures. I’m thankful he did because he found a polyp and gave me medicine afterwards to help treat other issues. I’m thankful for his care and expertise.

5.0 star star star star starThis was the first time I was here. I met with Dr Soudagar to discuss the removal of a polyp the size of a grape in my rectum. He was very thorough and comforting in telling me what he’s going to do and what to expect. He also covered the what ifs that could happen and told me the statistics of how it’s not probable but that he believes, as do I, in explaining everything.

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.
