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.

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.

Dr. Berber and Hannah had quick responses to any questions I had.
Reviewed on Jul 15, 2021
Dr. Berber is clinically solid, obviously very knowledgeable and well respected. That said, he spent a total of 11 minutes with me via Zoom and phone call combined, did not give me time to explain my symptoms or concerns and dismissed me with a couple of tests to be run as an "extra precaution". I do have a surgery referral from Dr. Tobias Carling in Tampa, but living in Michigan I am desperate for a closer option. Overall, Dr. Berber isn't a doctor I would recommend for consultation or illness discussion. I'm certain he is a phenomenal surgeon, but his explanation and discussion with patients is lacking.
