5.0 star star star star starHe’s a very concise doctor. Weighs carefully options based on the particular person and other words he puts a spin on it. That is about you as a patient. He tailor makes it fit the current scenario He is quick to point out there are many options if something doesn’t work out. Reassurance is king if you have cancer. At the same time his pretty forthright to dispel wrongs I like the fact it doesn’t sugarcoat He’s straight forward. Love him!

5.0 star star star star starOf the four oncologist's I've had since my cancer journey started 9 years ago, Dr. Saghir has always taken time to explain tests and scans to me, answered my questions, never rushed or been impatient or discounted my worries. He has a calm, pleasant, reassuring manner and makes me feel more than just another patient. I am very grateful for the two years he's taken care of me.

5.0 star star star star starHe is genuinely caring. He explains test results to my understanding and if I have questions about anything, I have never felt like I shouldn’t have ask the question or that it was a stupid question. I feel he stays on top of my care and let’s me know what I tests if any are coming up.
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.
