I really like her! She really cares for what is best for you. She take her time. She is easy to understand. She knows about all the medication I take. She also wants to make sure to answer all my questions and asks me things I didn’t remember to ask about. She didn’t say I only have time for 3 health concerns as other doctors have told me. I’m a very upset she is being transferred farther away. I hope I like the other doctors on staff.

Disclosures

Elizabeth P. Kunreuther, 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.
