I’ve seen Dr Dolan for years now for my annual. The most remarkable thing about her is even if it’s been 12 months between appts, she picks up the conversation as if we just talked yesterday. She is thorough, follows up on comments and care points as if no time has passed at all. I love that. I totally trust her.

She makes me feel very confident in finding solutions for my illness. I have been very successful in treating my diabetes because of the different treatments she has had me try. Also, today I was late for my appt. and Dr. Dolan called me to see if there was a problem. I was stuck in traffic. She took me as soon as I could get there. That's caring.

Disclosures

Nancy C. Dolan, MD 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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
