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 12/12/2017, Dr. Cooper 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. Cooper is an exceptional health care provider. Her approach is a mixture of intelligence, experience and a good dose of common sense. During the office visit Dr. Cooper's focus is on you, not a computer screen. She asks insightful questions without repeating what was asked by the nurse. In addition to examination, observation and lab tests, she has a conversation with you, extrapolating additional information. My experience has always been positive, leaving the office with a reasonable plan of action concerning my health.

Dr. Cooper is the best doctor I have ever had the pleasure of being seen by. She is very intelligent and has an incredible disposition. She is always respectful and helpful. Dr. Cooper always answers questions through my chart and always has creative solutions to health opportunities. Although her schedule is booked 1 year in advance, I know that I can contact her if I have an illness and she will try to get me in or set me up with a competent colleague. Dr. Cooper is always makes time to ask me about my physical and emotional health. Dr. Cooper is so pleasant and considerate on every visit. If you give out awards for best doctor at Cleveland Clinic, you should give one to Dr. Cooper because she is amazing and the world would be a better place if more doctors were like Dr. Cooper!

Dr. Cooper is always very helpful in making sure my questions are answered and my concerns addressed. If this were not the case, I would have switched primary care physicians long ago. She is very knowledgeable about all aspects of my care.
