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.

Thorough, lots of information, and she used several metaphors and images to make sure I understood what she was explaining. I can usually follow a lot of medical terms in discussions, and I imagine that her use of common images to illustrate a concept it very helpful to everyone, no matter what their level of medical knowledge and understanding is. She also appeared empathetic, and did listen closely to me when I spoke; she did not hurry me (yeah!).

Dr. Peters is an amazing healthcare provider. Patients improve and regain health when their physician is competent and compassionate. Dr. Peters overflows with both qualities. The results of her surgery on me was perfect. No visible mark remains. Throughout the care experience she was upbeat and treated me as an individual she cared about, even remembering to ask how my husband was doing! Now that I have "graduated" out of her care I will miss her and her staff.
