5.0 star star star star starVery down to earth - took time to explain. Did not rush straight to surgery. Saw him Jan. 2022 questioned how much MS had to do with symptoms vs bad fall vs old age. Had PT early 2022 and more testing. New neurologist ordered more MRI's. Dr. Walsh ordered more PT (2 rounds) late 2023-2024 found it made symptoms worse. Surgury expected date 02.2024

5.0 star star star star starVery thorough review of my issue and potential options for treatment. Dr Walsh was patient with my questions and gave me all the time I needed to understand his explanations. Amanda, the Physician Assistant was equally thorough and provided a good explanation of my problem. I left feeling like I could make a very informed decision on next steps for treatment.

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.
