Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2025
I had Dr. Fakler as my doctor for two surgeries and at least three dozen follow-up appointment over a roughly ten month period. Needless to say, there are few people who’ve seen my rear end as many times. Though that period was certainly one of the least favorite periods of my life, Dr. Fakler was a great doctor to have. As a doctor, she was extremely professional and efficient each time I met with her. Though I’ve had warmer doctors before, I never once felt as if Dr. Fakler didn’t treat me with respect. I hope to never need to visit a colorectal surgeon again, but if I ever need to, Dr. Fakler is absolutely who I would go to.
