5.0 star star star star starRead complaints he didn’t have time for questions. They were very wrong. He was very friendly, confident and answered all my questions. The NP was also great. I work in hospitals and have met very unfriendly people. Gives me more confidence.

1.0 star star_border star_border star_border star_borderDr. Gang never even came into the room. He sent an assistant to see me so I was never “privileged†to see Dr. Gang. It would be nice if you wait for an appointment to see him that he would at least show up and talk to you.

5.0 star star star star starMy recovery from surgery has been exceptional due to Dr. Gang’s skills. Dr. Gang really cares about his patients and was genuinely so happy to see how well I was doing. Dr Gang also took the time to explain all procedures and options in language I could understand and made sure I was a part of all the decision making regarding how we were going to resolve my heart issues.

5.0 star star star star starHe is top notch, great bedside manner, compassionate, kind, patient, and he explains everything in layman’s terms. He puts you at ease so you are able to comprehend the conversation. He patiently answers questions. As a post op patient, I can speak first hand to his truthfulness in what to expect. His Team mirrors everything stated here. They always listened to me, spoke to me, not at me, and answered all of my questions—never making me feel like it was a bother.

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.
