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 11/28/2018, Dr. Serhal 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.

This was my initial endocrinologist appointment because Dr Aycinia retired. Dr Serhal was very receptive and listened to my concerns very attentively. She explained about how to take my medications for better results ie spacing supplements. Good experience.

Dr. Serhal is amazing. She takes the time to truly look at you and listen to you. She explained things to me that no other Dr ever bothered to explain - and they were important things !!! I highly recommend her to anyone with a thyroid issue.

I was asked to come to my appointment early due to insurance issues. My nurse intake was at 3:30pm and my appointment was at 3:45pm I arrived at 2:30pm. It was after 4 when I got took back to a room, I went to the front desk to find out if I didn't check in right. They said I was checked in and asked the Nurse why I wasn't taken back yet. Apparently she was on the phone with an insurance company. The nurse apologized for the delay when she took me back. Dr.Serhal was in the room about 5 mins after the nurse left the room. Dr.Serhal was great, she had a Plan of Care before she came in the room. It was a relief knowing she had a plan for me. She took a lot of time with me answering my questions and making sure I was taken care of.

I was not certain if provider heard that the medicine was too expensive for me and then she prescribed an additional medicine which cost even more. I am trying to get help for reduction of cost on first prescription and maybe work on the second one later.

The Dr. said she would talk with my Dr. about My thyroid medicine.She said because I am allergic to generic Thyroid that she would send a report to my insurance to let them know. Maybe they will give me a break, the pills are costly. I need her to talk to Dr Mae so I can try to get on that thyroid pill,because the one that I am on isn't working. Thank you.

Dr never wants to help or listen. Sge just wants to push the same prescription that makes me sick everytime. I have been doing the same thing for 5 plus years and it hasn't helped. I try to explain this to her and she never listens.

Great experience. Dr. Serhal has a gift for listening and explaining thoroughly my condition as I will continue being monitored for some years to come. I felt she was quite generous with her time to sit with me until I understood my condition without further questions. Thank you!
