Dr. Bailey and the nurse were very kind to me when I was going through this unpleasant feminine issue. They were very professional when performing the pelvic exam and I really appreciate that.

Dr. Bailey and ICC technician Kelly and front desk representative Barbara were so amazing with my 7 year old. They were quick yet cordial and professionals throughout the visit. iCC’s are not a place we strive to travel to, but when you are taken care of by wonderful people like that, it makes the trip bareable.

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.
