RE:

I had a similar situation a couple of years ago where a hemorrhoid surgery, or rather the aftercare, got screwed up by a UCSF doc which led to inflammation and a fistula. To get this sorted out, I saw Dr. Million at the Center for Colorectal Health. She scheduled a sort out-patient procedure that healed well. She's not in the East Bay and not Kaiser, but I can recommend her hands-down.

I didn’t get to choose, but Amy Michelle Tolan at Kaiser Oakland did my surgery and so far, so good! Wishing u the best.

My husband had fistula surgery with Dr Olakunle Oluseun Ajayi at Kaiser Oakland and recommends him. He had a great experience, the surgery went well, fistula didn't come back, and Dr Ajayi was personable and made him feel well taken care of.

RE:

Dr. Rupert Horoupian is a great surgeon who does lots of fistulas and hemorrhoids but he's not part of Kaiser. His office is across from Summit Hospital in Oakland. 510-465-5523

I've done a lot of research before choosing a Kaiser doctor for my hemorrhoid surgeon. In Oakland, two were highly recommended by both patients and Kaiser department staff (that was 3 years ago): Dr. Tolan and Dr. Ajayi. In the end, I chose Dr. Tolan, because I am a woman and the thought of a big male doctor handling my behind didn't feel right to me. I am not sexist in any way, but somehow the gender of the surgeon mattered to me. I was very happy with the surgery, and still am glad that I had it done. In fact, I can't imagine how hard it would be to still be dealing with the hemorrhoids, especially now during the pandemic. You'll have a great outcome if you pick either Dr. Tolan and Dr. Ajayi. Here are their web pages:

Good luck!
