          Dr Faber is so talented, and he listens to everything I have to say and makes sure I understand.One of the best things - he felt that he should communicate with my transplant coordinator and the possibility of me taking another round of steroids. My wife asked what steps he wanted her to take because she usually has to go back and forth between doctors. Dr Faber said - get this - "That's my job." So my wife needn't be in the middle - this is very rare and thoroughly appreciated.

          Dr. Faber is careful to explain things so that I can understand what he is saying. He always asks about my concerns and is very respectful. I have recommended him to several people that have asked about breathing problems.

          Dr Faber has been my pulmonologist since 2014 when he diagnosed me with pertussis. He has helped me through many different illnesses since then and I feel he is one of the best doctors I have ever met.
