An excellent experience with the physician.

Reviewed On 3/1/2023
I am a cancer patient and Dr Dowlati is my Oncologist and the lead of my oncology team. They are to be credited for my not only surviving a serious and "incurable" form of cancer but also able to thrive in a quality of life that I didn't think possible when first diagnosed. This generalized survey does not do justice to the level and quality of care I have received.

Each visit with Dr D. Is absolutely amazing! He takes His time to explain my medical condition and the steps his team is taking to give me the best possible care. His bedside manner is wonderful. He even took the time to call me when he said he would. HE called. Not his secretary or nurse. HIM! He's a busy researcher and for him to take the time to call made me feel like I meant something.

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.
