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 11/15/2018, Dr. Schwartz 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.

It took six weeks to get on Dr. Shwartz schedule for my colonoscopy. That seemed a little long considering it was his office that had originally contacted me regarding the colonoscopy.

The staff was charming, especially "Laura". Dr. Schwartz was efficient, and recommended I stop one of my meds. He was right, I appreciated that. He asked me questions, and thought about each one. He was very considerate. Thank you

I had never seen this doctor before, but I need a new gastroenterologist since Dr. Yang retired. Not only was Dr. Schwartz not welcoming or concerned about me as a patient, but I felt like I was a bother to him! I have never been treated this way by a physician and I will not recommend this doctor to anyone.

Nurses were very good. Dr. Schwartz made me feel uncomfortable.

I've been to plenty of doctors, but I don't know if I've ever felt quite so dismissed. There was no effort to explain what he thought the issue was. He acted like it was my fault that my history wasn't readily available for him to read, or that I couldn't remember what blood tests a former provider had ordered 5 years ago. He gave me a prescription and told me that I did not need to follow up. Then he shook my hand and sent me on my way.
