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.

Dr. Lindenmeyer was seeing me for the first time. I have been a post liver transplant patient for 9 years. Before entering the exam room, she had thoroughly reviewed my history, past and recent diagnostic studies and was well prepared to discuss a treatment plan with me.

Sometimes it,s difficult to get Dr. Lindenmeyer and Dr. Kapadia the same week in the month I would like to come up to Ohio. I wish I could schedule when I am there for my visits. They do a terrific job in getting to see me the same week. Our only Grand daughter was born on March 19th. So It,s ideal if I could be at the Clinic in late March or Very early April. Over all excellent job on access.We live in South Carolina.

Dr Lindenmeyer spent time with me to discuss my test results and to answer my questions. She provided thorough explanations that treated me like an intelligent person. She did not appear rushed, which I really appreciated: while she was with me she was focused on me. She talked through next steps (future tests and appointments) as she was entering them in the computer so I could ask questions real-time. I am very happy with her care and would highly recommend her for someone in need of her specialty.
