    Dr. Faje is extremely knowledgeable on neuroendocrine pituitary conditions. He spends a lot of time with you, but while speaking, while I was speaking as a patient, he interrupted me and inaccurately summarized some of the information I said. So he asked me about like any other conditions I have, and I mentioned that I get migraines and headaches, and then he cut me off and said, well, it sounds like you're going to the wrong providers to talk about that symptom. And I'm like, well, you asked me the question, so I brought it up to you, but I've already seen other, you know, neurologists and physicians about it. So it's like kind of strange contraction. But I found that anything that had to do with the pituitary physician, he had a lot to say that seemed very science-based, that he would just like shut me down when I spoke. That's all. Thank you.

    I was quite early for my appointment and Dr. Faje was so considerate and saw me much earlier than my scheduled appointment. He is so very thorough and very helpful.

    I believe that Dr. Faje is very kind, caring and competent. I felt as though I were in good hands during my visit at Mass General and my subsequent time spent at New England rehab in Maine, specifically related to endocrine issues after the tumor was removed from my pituitary gland. During my post visit with him, he kindly and clearly indicated that I would need to have an endocrinologist in My Home state which is Maine. Also ordered blood tests for me which I had done in the lab the day after I received a letter from him indicating the results and follow up. Dr Faje assured me that whatever is needed by me until I see an endocrinologist in Maine, (situations, prescriptions etc). I can have tended to by him and this office. This is a tremendous relief for me!!

  • Reviewed on 5/26/2025

    I find Dr. Faje is somewhat patronizing in his conversations and also is unwilling to speculate about virtually anything. He's very insistent on staying strictly with what there have been studies of, which makes it very difficult to understand what options are or to anticipate anything into the future. [redacted]
