Dr was very dismissive added information on my chart as appointment notes that she never discussed with me. Even the plan of care she mentions was not shared with me at all during the visit. The only thing she actually recommended was to go to my primary care dr nd to check my pressure twice a week. However, my after visit notes have a lot that she said she shared?

She addressed my health concerns in various ways. She put me at ease, she took time to explain my situation and showed me images that I was confused about. She treated me with respect, and also with a sense of humor, and gave me options for treatment. After (and during) the appointment I felt lighter than I've felt in a couple of months because she eased my mind but also gave me feedback that was sobering. A true scientist with an awesome patient care manner that I very much appreciated.

Disclosures

Preeti Kansal, 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. To learn more about our Disclosure and Professional Integrity Policy, and the conflict of interest policies of our joint affiliate survey partners, please go to our Office for Regulatory Affairs Policies page.
