5.0 star star star star starDr. Syed is incredibly knowledgeable. She accommodated my inability to attend my appointment. Dr. Syed did a literature search on the diagnosis migraine and the medication I am taking; she called me on the phone to tell me about the literature find. I love my neurologist.

5.0 star star star star starDr Syed is amazing! So kind, empathetic and compassionate. She is a great listener. Suprising how difficult all of that is to find in a doctor and I have seen a lot of doctors and a lot of specialists within multiple hospitals recently.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Syed was phenomenal. She was professional. Her knowledge base is impressive. She was thorough in her exam. Dr. Syed acted as if she cared and empathized with me. She included my preferences in the treatment program. I didn't feel rushed. She owned the Northwestern brand.
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.
