5.0 star star star star starToday was my first visit with Dr. Poronsky. I was seen at my appointment time (no long waiting!) Dr. Poronsky was very kind, thorough and really delved into my medical history in order to make recommendations going forward. He did not rush through my appointment at all! I had been with the same doctor for 32 years (he retired!) And I was worried about finding someone I would connect with. Well, I found him! I highly recommend Dr. Poronsky.
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.
