5.0 star star star star starEthan is kind, patient and answers all of my questions. It's always good to have a doctor that listens and not dismissive. I liked the ability to do a tele-health call when my in person visit had to be canceled.

5.0 star star star star starEthan Hixson needs to be cloned for his friendly professionalism. My anxiety concerning my breast pain was met by reassuring me about the probable reason for it. He was very helpful with his exam. I will take his advice and recommendations to eliminate my pain.

5.0 star star star star starEthan Hixon exceeded all of my expectations! He was on time, efficient but thorough, informed, prepared, supportive & patient. He was more helpful to me - about having me understand my condition- than any of the other doctors I’ve seen…like 5!!! He was reassuring but not dismissive, and provided next steps. Just perfect!!

Disclosures
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.
