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.

The doctor was amazing, attentive, and interested in my care. The woman who initially saw (to ask me questions and gather medical history) me prior to doctor coming in was abrasive and rude in her tone and demeanor. The woman/nurse who came in AFTER the doctor was done was lovely, happy, and very sweet. She is not the same person who saw me prior to the doctor seeing me. This nurse handed me the prescriptions for the Ct scan, the endoscopy/colonoscopy, and labwork. Though she only interacted with me for one minute, her presence was warm and comforting from the second she entered the room.

I think video conference is a new way, and very important. It was very helpful for somebody like me who couldn't drive all the way down to Weston from Jupiter. It will be very beneficial and helpful if we could always have pre-doctor visits via video chat.
