Patient Experience Reviews
We love Dr. Coutinho. She's the best!
We always have a great experience in the office
Dr.Coutinho is honestly the best doctor for my kids. She's super straight forward and seems to know all the right things for my kids, wouldn't want anyone else we're lucky to have her!!
Dr. Coutinho is a legend. She combines her extensive knowledge with the art of not over medicating and knowing when not to prescribe. How she wanted to thoroughly understand the timeline of the disease and the timeline of every symptom, to be able to predict whether or not body can continue fighting or needs help, is remarkable. We trust Dr. Coutinho!
Industry Relationships
University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.
UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
