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.

The doctor was short in giving information asked for questions & then left - no time to process - like he wanted to get in & out quickly.

Reviewed on Nov 28, 2018

I appreciate my physician listening and addressing my concerns.

Reviewed on Nov 8, 2018

My interactions with Dr Mayuga were very positive and pleasant. I could see that he was really focused on what was best for me. I have interacted with other doctors in the past where I felt that I was a lab experiment and they were more focused on the experiment then they were on my well being. I am very appreciative of Dr Mayuga.
