Industry Relationships
Cleveland Clinic physicians and scientists may collaborate with the pharmaceutical or medical device industries to help develop medical breakthroughs or provide medical expertise or education. Cleveland Clinic strives to make scientific advances that will benefit patient care and support outside relationships that promise public benefit. In order for the discoveries of Cleveland Clinic physicians' and scientists' laboratories and investigations to benefit the public, these discoveries must be commercialized in partnership with industry. As experts in their fields, Cleveland Clinic physicians and scientists are often sought after by industry to consult, provide expertise and education.
To assure professional and commercial integrity in such matters, Cleveland Clinic maintains a program that reviews these collaborations and, when appropriate, puts measures in place to minimize bias that may result from ties to industry. Cleveland Clinic publicly discloses the names of companies when (i) its physicians/scientists receive $5,000 or more per year (or, in rare cases, equity or stock options) for speaking and consulting, (ii) its physicians/scientists serve as a fiduciary, (iii) its physicians/scientists receive or have the right to receive royalties or (iv) its physicians/ scientists hold any equity interest for the physician's/scientist's role as inventor, discoverer, developer, founder or consultant.* In publicly disclosing this information, Cleveland Clinic tries to provide information as accurately as possible about its physicians' and scientists' connections with industry.
As of 3/5/2020, Dr. Flores has reported no financial relationship with industry that is applicable to this listing. In general, patients should feel free to contact their doctor about any of the relationships and how the relationships are overseen by Cleveland Clinic.

Public Health Service-Reportable Financial Conflicts of Interest. Cleveland Clinic scientists and physicians engage in basic, translational and clinical research activities, working to solve health problems, enhance patient care and improve quality of life for patients. Interactions with industry are essential to bringing the researchers' discoveries to the public, but can present the potential for conflicts of interest related to their research activities. Click here to view a listing of instances where Cleveland Clinic has identified a Public Health Service (PHS)-Reportable Financial Conflict of Interest and has put measures in place to ensure that, to the extent possible, the design, conduct and reporting of the research is free from bias.

The whole experience was a very pleasing and welcoming hospital visit. from the location, the downstairs nurse was so nice and pleasant, the building appear clean and was quiet. There are computers downstairs to check in once your there which is, great. once up stairs, the waiting area was very clean and felt like I was waiting in my own personal living room. from waiting there a very short period of time, the hospital and waiting room appear to be very clean and well kept. the receptionist, whom I can't remember her name. ( or registration clerk). was the best experience I ever had. smooth, professional and easy to deal with. she also multitask well. she even looked up and acknowledge patients waiting for her to let you know, she would be with you and one moment. ( if she was on the phone). she even wrote on paper and signal me over to day, how can I help you, while helping someone at the same time. I was able to write down my message and she not only took the message, she followed up with me to make sure it was correct. once inside my room, it appeared to be clean, the nurse was nice. The Dr. was nice and made me feel welcome. I have made another appointment to go back for other hospital needs. I rate them excellent, for this particular visit. from the beginning to end.
