Lindsey is absolutely phenomenal!! She is extremely knowledgeable and a delightful person. Yesterday I had a phone session with Lindsey due to an unexpected situation. She called me in the morning and offered to have a phone session instead of our scheduled afternoon appointment. I appreciated having the option of a phone session, rather than miss the appointment all together.

As mentioned above, Lindsey Shaffer is exceptional!! She is extremely knowledgeable and each visit educates me. I have received more information from Lindsey in the short time I’ve been seeing her than I have received from all the dietitians I’ve seen, both inpatient and outpatient. In addition, Lindsey is dynamic, genuine and kind.

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.
