Dr. Guerrero came in introduced herself plus her student , Ray. Ray took down my preliminary information. Dr. Guerrero sat down with me and drew a diagram showing the cause of my discomfort and giving me her advice for treatment. Her knowledge was great, as she checked all my previous conditions to come to her conclusion.

Doctor Guerrero is a fantastic doctor, who operated on me and did a great job, so much as I had absolutely no pain ever. I even had to ask her, are you sure you removed 80% of my stomach because I never had any pain ever. And I healed great. She is so polite and listens to you and helps you with any questions you may have. Doctor Guerrero, is just a wonderful person. She is just great at her job!!!

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.
