Dr Kiely is amazing and I am so fortunate to work with her. I'm optimistic that in 1 visit she may have cured me. Time will tell over the next several days if this is the case but I expect it is. I've been struggling with a variety of defecation issues for 15 years and I've seen a variety of specialists and primary care doctors in Connecticut and recently in the DC area that wer not helpful

After going through this experience, I would consider her an "elite" surgeon who has great knowledge, experience and skills as well as a delightful bedside manner.

Dr Kiely was great. She was easy to talk to about a personal issue and provided me with a course of treatment that I'm very hopeful will resolve things for me.

Dr. Kiely is without a doubt the best medical practitioner I've ever seen. Her demeanor is professional, yet friendly and compassionate. Her incredible bedside manner put me at ease during my first ever colorectal exam. She recommended a conservative, non-surgical treatment for my condition, which provided immediate pain relief and improved my quality of life over subsequent weeks. If you have reservations about seeing a colorectal surgeon. I implore you to give Dr. Kiely a chance. I trust her with my life.

Excellent

Two previous providers had just said I had some sort of infection, and had made no effort to find out what it was or treat it. This was the first who took tests and let me know what it was. This was helpful both in getting treatment and in notifying contacts.
