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 12/13/2022, Dr. Sikon 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.

I can only praise Dr. Sikon. She is thoughtful, caring, thorough, attentive and patient with my multitude of questions. I travel to Ohio because Dr Sikon is "up" on all the trials, tests and contra-indications for my conditions. Even though her position at CC gives her little time, she has always been there to answer and explain the pros and cons of my care.

Dr. Sikon is one of the few doctors who examines the patient history/records before seeing the patient. She has also a great memory. She listens everything carefully, takes seriously and follows. She gives information from the latest studies in the related fields. She feels the patient. She is one of the best physicians I have ever met. Thank you, Dr. Sikon for being there.

Dr. Sikon and her staff are very responsive to my email questions and support in having all of my appointments scheduled. This includes appointments outside of the internal medicine group. Her follow up on upcoming tests recommended is second to none. I am very happy with Dr. Sikon's support in my health care needs.
Reviewed on Dec 16, 2022
In my years at the Cleveland Clinic and other treatment centers (as I have lived in PA, MI and OH) I have never had the quality of care that Dr. Sikon provides. She takes her time to explain the risk benefit of all options available for my case. CCF has a tremendously capable physician in Dr. Sidon and her staff. In the latest appointment she has set up a series of tests to answer the necessary questions in my case. I have complete confidence while I am in Dr. Sikon's care.
