He is friendly and takes the time to explain everything in terms I understand. The only negative is it can be difficult to get an appointment with him on short notice, but thatâ€™s probably because he is in high demand.

As a former patient with Advocate Health..I had the same physician for 25 years. I was skeptical about seeing a new doctor. Dr. Chmielewski was very professional, kind, helpful and knowledgeable. His presence was very positive and uplifting. Iâ€™m definitely going to remain and revisit Dr. Chmielewski as my primary physician.

Dr Joe is laid back and easy to talk to. I know that he listens to me and I always leave feeling like my health & wellbeing is a team effort (Iâ€™ve seen other doctors where Iâ€™ve felt rushed and nearly like a burden when asking questions). Even when the office is packed, he takes time to explain things & ask questions to make sure I understand.

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.
