Dr. Colvin Help me out with my Pain Issue on my hemorrhoids. But I went back and Saw Dr. Rebehak Kim who saw that I need Surgery. I was diagnose when I retired from the Military with hemorrhoids but never did anything about them. But going through a life change experience. The stress really inflame them. I was in so much pain. I called the Fairfax office and they gave me an appointment that afternoon. Dr. Rebehak Kim told me I need Surgery to have the hemorrhoids removed. Had Surgery on 14 Nov 2024. Everything went fine it lasted 20 minutes. Did my follow up with Dr. Rebehak Kim on 16 Dec 2024. So look at me and said everything is good to go. I told Dr. Kim she gave me the greatest Christmas present this year taking about the pain I had. I told Dr. Kim she is the best. God bless her. She is top notch Doctor. I will recommend Her and this office to anybody I know has problems. Please recognize Dr. Rebekah Kim for her Superior job she did on me. It took a whole lot of pressure off of me. And Dr. Kim again Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. You are worth more than a 5 star rating. You are the best to me in your field of Medicine and taking care of people . Good Bless you. Also all the staff provided Superior Service

I would give zero stars but you are required to give at least one star. This is an updated review of my experience with Dr. Kimberly Matzie at Fairfax Colon & Rectal Surgery which has been deeply troubling and life-altering. In August 2020, Dr. Matzie performed a robotic surgery to correct a rectal prolapse using mesh. Unfortunately, this procedure has resulted in four years of excruciating pain, three additional surgeries at renowned institutions, including the Cleveland Clinic and medical facilities in Atlanta and Zurich, Switzerland, and nearly $90,000 in out-of-pocket expenses. Despite these efforts, I have found no relief. From the beginning, her approach to my care was marred by negligence and dismissiveness. During my only post-op visit with Dr. Matzie, I expressed concerns about severe post-surgical pain. I cannot state the exact words she used, as they will not post that in a review, but essentially her response was unprofessional, saying, ‘I hate to be harsh, but you need to just suck it up.’ This lack of empathy and support made an already difficult recovery process even more challenging. The complications stemming from the initial surgery have significantly impacted my quality of life, and I now face the probability of undergoing another major surgery (highly recommended by Cleveland Clinic) to remove my large intestine and live with a colostomy bag. This is a devastating prospect. Something that should have never happened. While I acknowledge that medical outcomes can vary, I feel compelled to share my story as a cautionary tale for others considering similar procedures. I strongly urge anyone seeking care for colorectal issues to thoroughly research and seek second or even third opinions before proceeding with treatment. And I would definitely stay away from Fairfax Colon & Rectal Surgery!

Dear Doctor Plerhoples. Approximately 2 1/2 years ago I was diagnosed with colon cancer . I was blessed to have Doctor Plerhoples as my surgeon. I was also diagnosed with severe Crohn’s disease . I was severely inflamed making surgery almost impossible. Several doctors including my oncologist, and gastro doctors suggested that surgery while I was inflamed was risky . Dr.Plerhoples said it was imperative he perform the surgery immediately and remove the cancer mass. He knew the operation needed performed to remove the cancer mass from my body immediately. He was super confident, experienced, and a amazing surgeon. I was blessed to have him perform a successful surgery . It’s been 2 1/2 years since my operation and I will never forget Doctor Plerhoples. Thank you and god bless you . Your an amazing surgeon. I wanted you to know I’m grateful you were my surgeon. Good bless . Sincerely. Robert J Gilchrist Rgilchrist1969@yahoo.com.

Amazing experience. Dr. Tillou was personable, approachable, and very knowledgeable. He took time to listen to my questions and concerns, and he explained things clearly and completely. Also, unlike almost every other healthcare provider I've encountered, he performed an in-office procedure on the initial visit. I am already on the road to recovery - not stuck living with my condition while waiting for the next appointment. Highly recommended. Thank you!

Dr.Colvin is amazing and so is his staff and team. I'm 22 now and have known him since I was 14 . I had/have colon issues and he did surgery so I have a ostomy and he always made me feel comfortable and made sure I understood what he was talking about. My family has known him for around 30 yrs . I wouldn't trust anyone but him to do procedures and surgeries on me

Even after a morning in surgery, she had the patience to hear out my complaints. I am being followed for cancer reoccurrence. I have extreme confidence in her diagnostic and interventional skills should my cancer return. One of best doctors on my team.
