The care provided by Patricia Brown and her team was truly exceptional. She listened to all questions and concerns, provided thorough answers, and did testing necessary as a basis for her findings and conclusions. Patricia reviewed my health situation on a holistic basis, which is rare. I greatly appreciated her holistic approach; while follow up with Patricia isn't required at his time, I have an appointment for a lymphedema evaluation as she recommended.

Patricia Brown is fantastic. She knows how to analyze what was my leg vein problem, and then give me several choices as to what to do next. She explained everything very well--several times as I am a Senior and don't "get things" the first time any more. She (and her staff) were patient and thorough. Since meeting with Patricia Brown I know my leg/verin problem is improving. And I only have to wear those (awful) tight sox for a couple more days.

Disclosures

Patricia L. Brown, APRN reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2023.

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.
