Dr. Zembower is very thorough & explains details well. I find out “reasons why” for things that no other doctor has explained before. I feel confident that Dr. Zembower will do the best with my care & am grateful for having been directed to her given my high incidence of UTIs.

Dr. Zimbower is an amazing physician, very knowledgeable, and has a fantastic bedside personality. When I was with her, I felt that I was most definitely the only person in the room. I had her full attention for as long as it took. I did not feel that I was a number or a small cog in a large machine. I was definitely delighted and thrilled that she was my physician.

It was my first appointment with her. We had a great consultation. We decided to leave it up to me to make a follow-up appointment with her, as I currently don't have any health issues requiring her services. Will definitely be making an appointment if I need her!

Disclosures

Teresa R. Zembower, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2023.

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.
