5.0 star star star star starHe is an incredible Dr. He is the best Dr I have and I moved out to the far southern suburbs and I will always drive to see him, I will never switch Rheumatoid Dr. He has helped me thru some very painful times and got my arthritis to a point where that I had very minimal pain.

5.0 star star star star starHe was the last out of (5) doctors I saw, and the only one to recognize my illness, explain it to me and help me treat it. He continues to be a very concerned and caring doctor who treats me as a person instead of a number. I hope NW realizes that its the doctors and nurses that make the experience and not the name of the hospital. I also have a NW primary physician that I would not recommend.

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.
