CNP Sarah listens and has compassion for her patients. It took me a long time to find the perfect fit, but so worth it. I have been her patient for a very long time and has followed her moving to a new location that is rather far, but when you find someone like her, it is worth it!

She was so personable and sweet. Made an unpleasant visit go quickly and smoothly at times forgetting why I was even there b/c it felt like talking with a good friend. Not only did she show empathy and concern for me today, but made it clear she wanted to help me be proactive for similar situations in the future to avoid any discomfort in the future. Just so grateful for all her help and support.

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.

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.
