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.

I think it was perhaps accidental, but I remember being sort of cut off in the middle of one of my answers and I didn't get to finish because Dr. Ng moved the conversation to something else, if it was important I would have brought it up again so it didn't hinder my care per se but it made me feel momentarily silenced or foolish for rambling, when from my perspective I'm trying to answer as carefully and fully as I can.

Dr Ng is the best Dr I've have been assigned at CCF. Dr. Ng LISTENS, stays engaged with me & works with me to ensure understanding. I tend to overtalk Dr. Ng; however, Dr. Ng courteously redirects me stay on track. Dr. Ng went out of his way to ensure I was able to have my recent knee surgery at CCF when I was certain I was going to need to seek care elsewhere.
