Again, he listens, he truly cares about his Patients and when you need a referral, he has no problem putting you with the right person. Because of him, I have an amazing Neurologist, kidney specialist and I am set up with a new G.I. doctor. He makes sure all the bases are covered on your visit and I honestly recommend him to everyone.

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.
