Dr.Bolduan called me the day before my appointment to give us a different time because she wanted to spend more time with me to really figure out what's going on and how to help. She presented several options and steps to take for me to hopefully improve my life with my trach, and to help manage my trach. She was so nice, patient, caring, and had a great personality that made things feel more comfortable. I'm looking forward to being a patient of hers.

Dr. Bolduan is the most personable doctor I’ve ever met. She was so kind and took plenty of time to walk through different options with us. She is fantastic with kids and even took about 5 minutes with my daughter just to get her a sticker that she wanted. I’m going to let my pediatrician know about this and I hope that she’ll always recommend her when kids need to see an ENT.

I cannot say enough great things about Dr Bolduan. From the first day we met with her, she had our 18 month on her lap giving him love while explaining things to us. The day of his surgery, she explained everything with great detail and made sure we were comfortable before beginning. She also came back with him after surgery and reassured a very nervous mom. As parents, it’s not easy putting young kids under for procedures, and she made the whole process easier for us. She is simply amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better surgery experience.

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.
