I feel so fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Jackson in my search to help alleviate my back pain. Dr. Jackson is so open to trying other possibilities before surgery. I never would have tried acupuncture without his suggestion, and it really is helpful. I find Dr. Jackson extremely knowledgeable in so many areas as well as being so pleasant in his interactions.

Disclosures

Kevin M. Jackson, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

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.
