My 12 yr old daughter had an appointment to see Dr. Kallen, when he enter the room she started looking at his paperwork and proceeded to tell me that my daughter was obese. The look on my daughter’s face was shocking. My daughter does have a weight problem, sha is actually working very hard to be healthy. For a doctor to tell her that she is an obese girl that weights 195lbs when that is not even close to being her weight. As soon as we got out of there my daughter started crying and absolutely does not want to see Dr. Kallen again. He hurt my daughter’s feelings.

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. 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.
