Dr. Sabo took care of my mom when she needed knee replacements and also when she fell and broke her wrist and pelvis. He was very inventive to her needs and I saw how much he cared about her not just as a patient but as a person. So I decided when I needed an orthopedic doctor I would choose Dr. Sabo. I saw him at the Cleveland Clinic and he told me that he was leaving the clinic and going to University I decided to follow him for my care. A very caring doctor for sure.

The surgeon that did the work is no longer there so the doctor who replaced him is not as familiar with my surgery. It was a 1-year check-up. He eased my mind over concerns I had about what I could do.

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.

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.
