I hope you appreciate Doctor Witmer as much as I do. Let's be honest he Is a real doctor. As you know it's pretty much you or the Clinic. You both come off as a giant factory's looking to bill and over charge us at a moments notice. He actually cares about his patients. I'm worried that when Dr. Witmer is gone I am going to end up having to go to one of your clinics that are popping up like gas stations. Where I will never see a real doctor. You are LUCKY to have him represent UH. My family appreciates his hard work. I'm happy to talk about his care at any time. ***

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.
