I was terrified for this appointmentThe doctor came into the room shook my hand and my husband's and before he said anything he said "I know you're anxious so let's just get this out there" and he told me the good things about my medical issue and I was put at ease. Once I started to feel calmer (he knew I was a wreck because his nurse took my blood pressure in advance and it was very very high) he then started to give me detailed explanations.

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.
