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 11/26/2019, Dr. Unnithan 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.

Dr. Unnithan is very respectful of my concerns regarding my health care and that I don't like to take medication unless it is of the utmost importance and I do not care for invasive tests either. I have recommended the Dr. to a good friend and she is equally impressed with Dr. Unnithan.

I mentioned I had a prostate problem and an implant problem and she said I need to make an appointment with a urologist. when I made the initial appointment the schedule person said Dr Unnithan can check your prostate for you you don't need to see a urologist. I said I'm too overweight and want to loose weight. She said oh that's a common problem for people your age that has Diabetes. I was hoping for a more aggressive approach somewhat ok let's tackle this together so to start regarding the Diabetes , first thing we'll #1 #2, etc etc. She gives great explanations and is very kind

I usually like this doctor but this time she seemed done for the day (late Friday appt). she would ask me questions about my issue and when I was answering her she would talk over me and ask another question all while typing on the computer. it's like she was just clicking away without listening to my complete answer.

I have been seeing Dr. Unnithan for quite a few years now and wouldn't want to see anyone else! she takes her time with me and explains everything in plain English instead of a lot of medical terms! I appreciate that.
