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 8/28/2019, Dr. Kuenzler 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.

In response to my comments, she made remarks about it not being #her In response to my comments, she frequently answered with " this isn't my first rodeo". I felt belittled and froze up inside. She really didn't need to point out that she's a Dr. and knows a lot more than I do.

Had been apprehensive about this visit. I know that many diagnoses that stem from this class of diseases can be severe, debilitating, and life span limited. I should have spoken up and let her know how I was feeling but I didn't. Even so she was kind, considerate and caring. If I have to work with neuromuscular doc she would be an excellent choice. Her student was kind, considerate, thorough too. really appreciated both Drs sense of humor.

Dr. Rebecca Kuenzler is very thorough with her examination and gathering background information. She was very kind, compassionate, and listened to me. She helped me understand what is not happening to/with me -- as well as explained what may (or may not) be happening to cause my symptoms. I look forward to continued care with her.

Dr Kuenzler made NO references to literature I could read, research being conducted at Cleveland Clinic or anywhere else that could be interesting and helpful. She offered NO suggestions for anything that could be helpful to me in my effort to cope and/or manage my Peripheral Neurapathy.

I felt I could have used more time. I had the choice of either asking more questions or have the doctor do a new assessment to compare to my original evaluation in 2018. I chose a new assessment. So the time with the doctor is limited. They allow roughly 30 minutes and I took 40 minutes. I think at least 45 minutes would be better.
