5.0 star star star star starDr. Bayer is an amazing empathetic doctor who is very calming and caring. He can teach some of the doctors who forgot about empathy when treating patients because I don’t always have the amazing experience with past doctors appointments as I do every time that I experience with doctor Bayer. He’s an example of what every doctor should be.

5.0 star star star star starI have talked to a lot of doctors. He is very professional and knows what he is talking about. I have talked to doctors that just want to shuffle me in and out the door and I do not see them anymore. Dr Bayer truly cares for his patience and I believe he really knows what he's doing.
Disclosures
Robert A. Bayer, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.
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.
