He told it to me like it is in a way I understood especially about my triglycerides and my overall weight. I need to lose weight in the New Year. I feel amazing an healthy but I’m in the obese category & it’s not good long term. I may get away with it while I’m young but in the long run it is going to affect my health so I have to be disciplined and self aware conscious of portion control and up my cardio.

He is a very good nurse practitioner. He is detailed and thorough. So he is wonderful for those who wish to see a nurse practitioner but be charged for seeing an actual physician. If the question was worded, How likely are you to refer someone to the nurse Practitioner who had wanted to see the actual doctor I would give a score of zero.

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.
