5.0

Her key attributes are as follows: depth of knowledge in her field, deep concern for me as her patient, her willingness to "really" listen to my issues and concerns, checks in with me to see if I am happy with thevresults from her treatment plan, communicates with other physicians (as needed) and does not give up on trying to help me. Anymore, the medical field has become more and more of a corporate America run business. The physician/patient dynamics have had to evolve during this transition . In my opinion, this has taken a great toll on those important relationships. Dr. Bauer understands the need for this relationship to better serve her patients. Yet, she still keeps things moving like a well-oiled machine.

Disclosures

Kimberly A. Bauer, 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.
