5.0 star star star star starDr Catching always has current information readily available so that she can offer her opinion with facts on your particular situation. The time and patience that she takes is always appreciated. The fact that she will take same day appointments is very helpful when you are stressed about a problem that has occurred.

5.0 star star star star starShe will stand up TO me as a patient when I'm not doing what I need to for my health but she will also stand up FOR me when I need assistance from other care providers.

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.
