We feel very fortunate to live within close proximity to this clinic, where staff specialize in neurodegenerative conditions. While other providers are familiar with the diagnosis, not everyone specializes, so we got tired of the ongoing trial and error in the management of bvFTD. Dr. Lapins is very easy to communicate with and consistently helps us feel very comfortable / at ease. Appts are efficient, not rushed. We also have had a very helpful referral to Dr. [ ] for med mgnt. This type of care coordination is invaluable to our family as we continue along this journey.

It was my first visit with Dr Lapins. She seems very honest and straightforward. She drew a small diagram to help me to understand better where I'm at with my issues. And let me know about what some of my options are going forward. Things like that. I felt comfortable with her. And felt like she understood what I'm going through, and is willing to help me get through it.

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.
