5.0 star star star star starMost compassionate caring doctor I have ever met in my life. I went to him for a consult and various doctors out of Elgin of mine recommended him after I had some medical issues I had after being with a different gastric bypass surgeon. He took me on as a new patient and didn't turn me away even though I had previous medical issues. He is passionate about his patients and very informative in helping me through some various difficult medical problems.
Disclosures
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.
