5.0 star star star star starMy sisters, brother in law and mom are patients of Dr. Nierzwicki I am so happy I chose to take my son to him. He and the nurses were amazing with my Autistic adult son. They explained everything thoroughly about monitoring his heart to help find answers to his current condition. I will definitely refer friends and family to Dr. Nierzwicki and his team.

5.0 star star star star starHe takes time to explain things, such as a medication and what they do. His explanations are thorough. This has happened whether or not I've asked questions. Being a retired analyst, I like knowing this information to better understand what is going on with my health.

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.
