My appointment with Dr. Szeto was nothing short of outstanding, and I couldn't have hoped for a better first experience. She was so open and validating, she took so much time truly listening to me and listening to my concerns that I was actually shocked. Never in my life have I had a medical practitioner spend so much time with me to answer questions and suggest a plan of action, and it was amazing. When I first arrived at the practice, I was more nervous than I initially thought about the appointment. In fact, I didn't really understand just how nervous I was until I felt all that anxiety lift once I met her. She was knowledgeable, friendly, non-judgmental, and her personality and energy made me feel completely safe. I would be happy to give her the highest recommendation possible to anyone, anywhere.

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.

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.
