Dr. King gave our son such great care. Our son has developmental disabilities, and he couldn’t stop talking after his appointment about how nice Dr. King was. This was particularly important, as our son’s long time epilepsy doctor had retired. Thank you, Dr. King, for your kind, knowledgeable care.

Dr King is kind and patient and listens to my concerns and questions. She helps explain everything to me without making me feel rushed and anxious. I’m able to take the notes I need so that I don’t forget what we’ve discussed and if I ever had follow-up questions or more care needs she and her staff always respond to my messages in a timely manner.

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.
