Dr. Alessandra Ferrajoli, MD

Dr. Ferrajoli is my 6th oncologist (proceeding from private oncology to medical university to to research hospital). I am educated about my chronic disease, and would not do well with a "my way or the highway" type doctor. She is very easy to talk to, never talks down to me, and is flexible with proposed treatment plans.

Through our experience at MD Anderson as a family, we felt as is Dr. Farajoli was not a sincere doctor. She did not take the time to diagnose all options for our patient as the other doctor before her did. We were extremely pleased with Doctor Masarova as she seemed to do way more for our patient and with a not giving up attitude which kept our patient in good spirits! After the month they told us that at MD Anderson oncologist change shifts and we ended up with Dr. Farajoli which was a bad move on MD Anderson’s part to us. I mean I know our patient was ill but we don’t understand how when we first arrived at MD Anderson she was very ill in ICU and the ICU staff did an extremely great job to bounce her back up and get her to the leukemia floor with doctor Masarova as her oncologist weeks later Masarova did her most best to try a treatment plan which was helping and other options which seem to be helping our patient but then once Farajoli stepped in all options were denied and we lost.
