Just establishing a relationship with Dr Settergren, but has been really helpful so far, challenging in a very safe way. Affirming and encouraging, but also pushing me to think differently. Would definitely recommend Dr Settergren to others.

As always I appreciate her positive personality I feel that she listens to what I have to say I had a rough couple weeks and she was able to calm me down When I leave I feel much better and she definitely knows what she is doing Hopefully someday in near future I will be able to do a little more for my self That’s a hard thing for me and she makes me feel I can see a solution but I have been this way all my life it just doesn’t go away in a few months

She’s fantastic. You need to feel at home with a therapist and she had that personality where you can truly open up to her. And that is a key part of allowing her to do her job. She’s outstanding.

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.
