I enjoy my appointments with Dr. Fuqua. He always listens and helps with input when he can. I like that I can talk to him and he understands what I'm trying to say even if I'm frazzled.

Dr. Fuqua is truly the finest psychiatrist I've encountered. Unlike others psychiatrists who are primarily absorbed in typing notes and scripts during appointments and managing medications, he prioritizes me as a patient by actually looking at and listening to me attentively. Dr. Fuqua's kindness and compassion set him apart. I wish more doctors shared his approach and I feel extremely lucky to have found him!

Disclosures

Gabriel C. Fuqua, 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.
