Specifically related to PPA, he is the founder of this disease, has more experience than anyone else. Very calm and comforting demeanor. Seemingly unlimited knowledge and experience. Learn something from him every time we have met with him.

I’ve struggled to find doctors who are willing to help me figure out what is going on. He said he would do everything in his power to find out what is wrong which is something that I haven’t heard from any doctor whom I have seen for my neurocognitive declines.

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.
