Practice statement
At Fairfax Colon & Rectal Surgery, PC, the board-certified colon and rectal surgeons provide comprehensive colorectal care to adults at six convenient locations in Fairfax, Fair Oaks, Alexandria, Gainesville, Woodbridge, and Lansdowne, Virginia.
Fairfax Colon & Rectal Surgery, PC was founded by Dr. Colvin in 1984 as a one-man endeavor. At that time, colon and rectal surgery was a relatively new concept in Northern Virginia. A lot’s changed in the more than 30 years since, but FCRS has continued to pioneer advances in colon and rectal surgery.
Each practice location features a welcoming, spa-like environment and state-of-the-art diagnostics and surgical equipment. Patients can access same-day treatment for a wide range of anorectal health problems, including hemorrhoids, anal cancer, anal pain, rectal cancer, and fecal incontinence.
Whenever possible, the providers recommend minimally invasive treatments, like laparoscopy or robotic-assisted da Vinci surgery. These procedures allow for smaller incisions, shorter hospital stays, and a reduced risk of infection.
FCRS performs more than 45% of all colorectal procedures in Northern Virginia. The provider’s knowledge and expertise don’t go unnoticed. Many of the surgeons have even been voted “Best Doctors” and “Top Doctors” by Washingtonian and Northern Virginia magazines.
