I was told by Modhwadia that she only works with cancer patients in active treatment. (Not what I was originally told) This then set the tone for the rest of the very short appointment, I felt as though she wanted to get me out of there as fast as possible after that, she also felt the need to bring up that she wouldn’t be prescribing me medications because they are controlled substances (I didn’t ask to be prescribed anything, I was telling her about how my oncologist wouldn’t prescribe me any medications when I had asked during treatment). This immediately rubbed me the wrong way and made me feel like she was trying to imply something. I’m just looking for relief from my stress, depression, mood and sleep issues whether it come from talking to someone or medication. It has been hell trying to find someone I who will listen, I left this appointment crying and feeling totally dismissed. There was absolutely ZERO compassion here.

Disclosures

Kanan Modhwadia, 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.
