Dr. Umberto Capuano, MD

I had my gallbladder removed by Dr Umberto Capuano few weeks back. He is one of the best surgeons I have ever dealt with. His knowledge and professionalism are at a very high standard, plus he is very caring, personable and humble. He took time to explain to me all the options I had with their pros and cons, and because of that now I don't have anymore stomach pain nor am I on the brink of having pancreatitis. If he had still had a practice he would have definitely been my doctor. I cannot but be grateful I had him as a surgeon for my gallbladder removal. Thank you/Grazie, Dr. Umberto Capuano!

This was fine, because when he speaks he gets right to the point. He answered all my sons questions honestly and spoke sincerely about his medical concerns. His assistant Laurie, was a comforting presence. Had absolute confidence in him. Most amazingly surgeon.

I only imagine that many of these 5 star reviews are self written, or reviewed by friendly colleagues. These reviews should be verified for accuracy. Dr. Capuano dramatically departed from the standard duty of medical care. He needs immediate training in empathy. If he were more cooperative and less dogmatic, our outcome may have been different. RIP MOM

Unfortunately my mother insisted on being close to home when battling a very aggressive cancer. We, her children, wanted her in more knowledgeable hands, closer to our home, Sloan. While overall my mother was satisfied with her care, she was not happy, nor were we, with her “care” while under the watch of Capuano. Doctors are supposed to be in the line of work of helping people. With this profession comes a lot of responsibility. The medical field is not supposed to be simply diagnosing a problem, handing out a few pills, and moving onto the next patient. It means much more. It means being a physician, and a physician means being a healer. My mother’s last visit to the South County ER before her death was unpleasant at best. Capuano lacked a bedside manner and a connection with my mom. She knew she was dying, she didn’t need a dr who could care less. Shame on you. I trust is karma and I’m certain karma will work it’s magic.

Dr Capuano is the BEST! He saved my life in 2013 when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. He LISTENS to his patients AND let's the patient help chose the course of action. I am DEVASTATED that I may have to find another surgeon due to health insurance. (Why is it we can bring our cars to mechanics that WE WANT but we cannot take ourselves to Dr's of choice) Dr Capuano has MIGHTY BIG SHOES THAT NO OTHER CAN FILL!

I first met Dr Capuano back in 2015, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. In the past 3 years, he has become my go-to for practical, well informed medical advice. He goes to bat for me, when other Drs are pushing too hard. He actually saved my life one night, in the ER, with an emergency surgery. I trust this man completely, and am so grateful to have found him!!

Five stars all the way! Compassionate, knowledgeable, experienced and skilled. Highly recommend.

Very happy with Dr. Capuano. I have had a scheduled procedure and an emergency procedure that he performed. Couldn't ask for a better surgeon.

Love this DR. I have been seeing him since he opened his practice in the town I moved to. I dread to go to anyone else. If I had my way, I would not. Unfortunately, due to Health insurance issues, Dr. Capuano does not take my insurance. I have seen him a couple times on my own just for consults because I trust and value the opinion of this man so much I have a number of issues that are reoccurring and have been seen by Dr. Capuano in the past. I have neglected my health issues at time because to build a re pore and be confident with the Dr. you are seeing doesn't happen overnight. I am hesitant hoping my Ins. Provider will change or Drs. will get the bills paid in a timely fashion by the insurance companies so we can see the Drs. we choose to see. We pay enough~

My mother's surgeon (several separate needs) and definitely the one I would go to if needed! He has ALWAYS been honest, knowledgable, comforting, and focused on the whole patient and their wellness, body and mind. This doctor is definitely a patient first, skilled healer. The world would be a better place with more of his kind in the medical arts. Bless him!
