I / we, do! But he is no longer accepting new patients, at this time. That's not hard to understand. He's maxed out. One gets that way, when you are the best, of the very best. There are Doctors, and then there are, Doctors. Then there are Doctors that all other Doctor's, know and respect! Doctor Seiden is in a class, all by himself. He really, truly "cares" all about your over-all health. If YOU are not willing to do your part, in getting in, and then staying healthy, find another Doctor. Don't waste Doctor Seiden's time, expertise, and energy. He is the best, and he wants, no he expects you to be, all you can be!

Disclosures

William B. Seiden, 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.
