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 above describes the doctor. He is so engaged, thorough, caring and knowledgeable.

Reviewed on Mar 15, 2024

In all honesty, Dr. Ribiero has the best bedside manner of any doctor I've visited...ever. I've never felt rushed; he listens actively, explains things thoroughly without speaking down to me; he's open to proposed options, explaining the pros and cons; he took the time to review lab results with me and, even though they were normal, he explained what I should look for and why.

Reviewed on Mar 14, 2024

Dr. Ribeiro is the best doctor I have ever seen. He was so nice, listened to my symptoms, wanted to help me, educated me on my test results and explained his decision to me on why he came to his conclusion. He personally walked me to the scheduler and made sure I was taken care of. I wish he could be my primary doctor and that more doctors were like him.
