5.0 star star star star starHe is extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and timely and displays an impeccable, professional, decorum. Furthermore, while speaking to my elderly father, he took the extra time to talk slowly, clearly, and loud enough in an effort to help him understand what was causing his mobility issues.

1.0 star star_border star_border star_border star_borderHe suggested other hospitals to get my surgery done at outside of NWMed. Every time I talked to him I had to wait on the phone for him to review my chart, he was late to every appointment, ordered imaging that I had already had ordered by him and once I pointed that out he confirmed I was right. He didn’t take the time to learn about my situation or take any steps to guide me in my care.
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.
