Yeah. She's a lovely person. I felt very lucky to have her synthetic, sweet presence at times that I'm having difficulties. I'm very old. I've been ill. Anyway, lovely woman, and thank you.
This was my first visit. The care was timely, professional, and Dr. Faje was very aware of my past background, especially the last 13 months post-op brain cancer.
Great experience
Dr. Faje was very well prepared and made himself very familiar with my medical history. I was seen very promptly and courteously.
This doctor was excellent. He explained me very well. He was super patient, was excellent, excellent, excellent. I would recommend to anyone. Yes, five stars doctor. Thank you.
Very knowledgeable, which is the most important criteria for a specialist.
