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 1/25/2019, Dr. Misbah 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. Misbah is kind, professional and caring.

Dr Misbah always takes the time to listen to my concerns and answers all of my questions satisfactorily.

The Doctor has a lot of practical information to give, but does not seem to care for other aspects of the treatment. During chemo, it was horrible. She didn't seem to care about the issues that I faced. Her responses were textbook responses. She really needs to work on caring more for her patients.

Normally I have several questions, and the doctor always takes the time to thoroughly answer them.
Reviewed on Jan 7, 2019
At my appointment there were two women talking to me and I thought they were perhaps both physicians. Since I have met Dr Misbah only once a year, I am not well acquainted with her. The meeting seemed a little rushed and I came away from my appointment a little confused and felt I had not accomplished much.

Dr. Misbah is excellent - I would highly recommend her. She's prepared, knows your history, and is genuinely concerned about your well-being! The appointments are always very informative & she listens to you and addresses any questions or concerns you have.

this doctors office is excellent. the doctor herself is a nice person, however, she is not very understanding or empathetic about Cancer. she can't provide statistics for reoccurrence and doesn't explain why she is asking the questions she does. She has made me feel as if I'm better off keeping my mouth shut about pains/symptoms I'm having. downplays/blows off questions I have. Frankly, I'd like to switch to a different doctor in that office. Someone I feel cares and is doing everything to help me beat cancer.

provider knowledgeable and kind.

Dr. was apparently running behind schedule and thus rushed thru my appointment perhaps because it was not as critical as others
