Dr. Sanjiv Shah is not only an excellent clinician, but also a wonderful human being. There have been many issues with my mother’s heart. Some of the issues were overlooked by other physicians. Dr. Shah respectfully took our concerns very seriously and followed up with tests that were considered unnecessary by others. The tests helped us to improve my mother’s care. We are very grateful for his expertise and his kindness.

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.
