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 1/3/2018, Dr. Purisima 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.

Dr. Purisima was the worst doctor I have ever visited at the Cleveland Clinic. Thank God I have medical insurance because when I went into her office I was treated as if my discomfort was not important. I scheduled an appointment for what I assumed may have been a sinus infection. She literally looked at me for a total of 3 minutes and told me "there was nothing wrong with me" and I should get an over the counter allergy medication. She was rude when I tried to ask questions and did no testing or further examination when I continued to explain the extreme pain I was having. She then ended the appointment by telling me where the exit was and walked away. She obviously did not care that I had further questions/concerns, nor did she ask. I had to end up making an appointment with an ENT specialist the next day who validated my concerns and reassured me that I had a severe sinus infection and put me on an antibiotic. Dr. Purisima was not helpful. She wasted my time, money, energy and made me feel like I was not worth her time. I will never schedule an appointment with her again in the future, nor will I recommend her to any of my friends or family.
