5.0 star star star star starI can only speak to Dr. Ulstrup and she is is thorough. The only drawback is that there is a 6-7 month wait to book an appointment. I have to book my annual well in advance and sometimes not knowing my long term schedule. It can be daunting.

Xrays were read over the weekend and did not forward until late on Monday. 5. Lost her ability to "care" - more mechanical. 6. Has too many patients and cannot focus properfly.

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.
