Dr. Kannensohn and his nurse *** are always wonderful. They are prompt. Kind, caring, they explain things well, exams are thorough. Dr. addresses all questions big or small with respect.

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Kannensohn. He truly puts me at ease when it comes to any concerns I may have about my son's health. We had our first sick child visit for my 15 month old and he let me ask all the questions I needed to feel comfortable. I called the office at 2:30 on a Friday and he was able to see me at 4pm so I would have some peace of mind over the weekend. His nurse (I'm sorry ***) is absolutely wonderful as well and makes the visit equally as pleasant. I feel supported in knowing Dr. Kannensohn is there to help us make decisions regarding our child, rather than forcing us to make a decision. I can't imagine someone else taking care of my child.

Bravo UH you have a good team here. Give them a raise!

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.
