He is very trustworthy. He is also calming. I have decisions to make regarding my heart. Dr. Hodges was able to answer many of my questions. He led me to believe he will be in contact with my other doctors at NM, and they will make a team effort to decide the course to move forward with my surgery.

I was comfortable with Dr. Hodges from the moment he walked in. He spoke in a calm quiet manner and laid out all of the facts for my case. The plusses and minuses for doing [ ] vs [ ] . I am a petite woman and given my size wasn't sure what my options would be. He arranged for me to see Dr. [ ] the [ ] surgeon the same afternoon so I would not have to come back. And on top of it, he stayed until after my appointment with Dr. [ ] to see if I had anything else I wanted to talk about. He never made me feel rushed and answered all of my questions.

Disclosures

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.
