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 6/30/2024, Dr. Russell has reported the financial relationships with the companies listed below. 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.

The appt was through another doctor
Reviewed on Sep 19, 2024
Dr Russell is very good at answering questions. She isn't in a rush makes me feel like I matter. Her knowledge and experience shows in the light of treating me long distance. She goes through my labs and doctors notes. That's a lot for a practitioner. The only problem is scheduling they called me to make an appointment with Dr Russell when I already had one. They do not answer the phone when I call back several times it goes to voicemail. I stress because I thought I needed to make another appointment. Such wonderful doctors at Cleveland Clinic to have such poor staff. They aren't very cordial.

With respect to a number of my serious concerns, Dr. Russell was dismissive, unceremonious, and arguably churlish. Despite claiming to be a gastroenterologist, she could not answer the fundamental questions. It would have proven best to know that she is limited to nutrition - and nothing more.

I have had positive experiences at the Cleveland Clinic. I respect the institution. However, the exchange with Dr. Russell was not ideal.
