We were fortunate, pleased, and truly honored to meet Dr. Capuano after a long and careful search for a surgeon to perform a very important operation for severe L4-L5-S1 disc disease complicated by foraminal stenosis.
From our very first consultation and examination, we were impressed by his availability, professionalism, and, above all, his human approach. He explained everything in such a way that the patient not only feels comfortable, but is also able to understand everything clearly and simply.
From that very first appointment, we were extremely impressed by Dr. Capuano’s professionalism, as well as that of his staff — Sabrina and Martina, who were always incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful in keeping us informed about every step of the process, both before and after the surgery.
The surgery my wife underwent lasted seven hours. For us family members, those hours felt incredibly long and endless. But after all that time, hearing the phone ring and being able to speak directly with Dr. Capuano himself meant so much to us.
He could easily have delegated the call to another doctor or one of his assistants, but this is exactly what makes the difference. There are doctors, and then there is the Doctor — and Dr. Capuano truly is one.
The surgery was performed at Casa di Cura Città di Bra, an excellent facility in terms of professionalism, organization, and expertise. We could not have asked for anything better.
The operation was a 100% success, with no complications whatsoever — not even the slightest headache or pain in the area that was operated on.
Dear Dr. Capuano, when the patient, her husband, and her daughter cry tears of joy at seeing her walk again as if she had become 30 years younger, you should feel truly proud of the extraordinary work you have accomplished.
We will be forever grateful to you for everything you have done and for everything you will continue to do for all your future patients.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, and once again, thank you to you and to your entire team.
A heartfelt thank you for giving me my life back.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Cristian Capuano and to the entire staff of Villa Berica Clinic in Vicenza.
Dr. Capuano diagnosed me with grade II L4-L5 anterolisthesis complicated by grade IV spinal canal stenosis. On June 15, 2026, I underwent posterior L4-L5 spinal fusion and microsurgical decompression of the spinal canal.
From our very first meeting, I found in Dr. Capuano not only a professional of the highest level of expertise and precision, but above all, a person of extraordinary humanity.
He knew how to listen to me, understand me, and put me at ease, addressing my condition with great empathy and clarity and giving me the confidence I needed to face everything ahead.
A special thank you also goes to the entire Villa Berica facility. Here, you are not treated as a number, but as a real person, cared for with the utmost attention, kindness, and professionalism by all the nursing and support staff.
I would also like to express my sincerest gratitude to Dr. Sabrina, Dr. Capuano’s office assistant. She proved to be an invaluable and exceptional resource, standing out for the extraordinary clarity with which she explained the entire process related to my surgery.
Thank you, Doctor, because with your hands and your heart, you have given me back my peace of mind and a new quality of life.

I underwent surgery performed by Dr. Capuano on June 11, 2026, using a microsurgical procedure for osteoligamentous decompression and lumbar spinal fusion, with intraoperative monitoring, to treat L4-L5 disc disease complicated by spinal canal stenosis.
The day after the surgery, I was already walking, and today, just over two weeks later, I can say that I am more than satisfied. I am able to carry out most of my daily activities (with only a few limitations regarding excessive bending and lifting weights) without experiencing any of the pain I had before the surgery. I only have some minor fatigue-related discomfort after the walks and exercises I am doing to get back to 100% as soon as possible.
To give a better idea of what I consider an incredible medical achievement, I would like to share the fact that, since I was discharged, I have been able to walk more than 25 km in just one week. If someone had told me this before the surgery, I would never have believed it!
Beyond the Doctor’s expertise, professionalism, and exceptional clarity during the assessment of my condition, the attempt to resolve the problem without surgery, the explanation of the procedure, the post-operative follow-up, and throughout my current recovery, I would also like to emphasize the very human approach he showed me.
I always felt extremely well supported, not only from a clinical point of view, but also morally and emotionally — something that is by no means taken for granted and is quite uncommon for someone as highly skilled and accomplished as Dr. Capuano.
Never feeling like just a number, but rather feeling that, for the Doctor, my recovery was a shared challenge — a Doctor-patient partnership that we had to win together so that I could return to a normal life — has been, and continues to be, a powerful positive motivation for me to do everything necessary, from exercises to physiotherapy, to the very best of my ability.
Last but certainly not least, I would like to dedicate this final part to expressing my heartfelt thanks to the Doctor’s assistants. Their patience, kindness, efficiency, and expertise have been equally outstanding!
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
From my very first meeting with Dr. Christian Capuano, I immediately understood that he was a special doctor — highly professional, and someone I would wholeheartedly recommend to everyone.
He gave me an incredible sense of confidence by explaining my condition clearly and in great detail. For these reasons, I would like to share my exceptional experience.
On February 9th of this year, I underwent spinal surgery performed by Dr. Capuano, using a microsurgical technique for osteoligamentous decompression of the spinal canal, together with posterior spinal fusion from L2 to L5.
Already the following day, with the doctor’s assistance, I was up on my feet and walking without any pain.
Thanks to Dr. Capuano’s professionalism and expertise, just three months after the surgery I have returned to a normal life — something I had not been able to enjoy for a very long time.
Thank you so much, Doctor, for your expertise, humanity, and empathy. Being treated as a person, rather than as a “simple number,” during such a difficult time is truly wonderful.
My heartfelt thanks also go to the entire staff at the Como office — Sabrina, Martina, and Dr. Soraya.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the excellent experience I had.
I underwent surgery performed by Dr. Capuano for severe L4-L5 disc disease with an extruded disc herniation.
From our very first meeting, the doctor stood out for his great professionalism, expertise, and clarity in explaining the procedure that would resolve my condition. His confidence, combined with remarkable precision and extraordinary dedication to his work, allowed me to place my complete trust in his care — a decision that I am extremely happy with today.
The surgery was performed with great skill, and the results fully met my expectations.
I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to all the healthcare staff at Villa Berica Clinic, who distinguished themselves through their professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness. Throughout the entire process, I felt welcomed, cared for, and treated with great warmth and humanity.
My sincere appreciation also goes to the entire team in Como for their availability, kindness, and support at every stage of my journey.
An extremely positive experience in every respect, which I would wholeheartedly recommend with complete confidence.
In July 2022, I underwent surgery for a herniated disc in my spine performed by two doctors whom I had been referred to by a colleague.
At first, everything seemed to be going well, but on September 18th of the same year, I woke up with excruciating pain in both legs. From that moment on, a possible recurrence was suspected, but the situation was far from clear. The MRI did not provide any clear answers.
Then began the ordeal of injections, which gave me no relief. In December 2022, they decided to operate on me again.
After a long and extremely painful recovery, I managed to regain about 50% of my normal life.
By February 2025, I was still on my knees with pain, and I began looking for a doctor who could help me.
I heard the name of Dr. Christian Capuano, contacted his office, and went to see him. The first thing I said to him was: “Doctor, I need help.”
He carefully reviewed everything I had brought with me, including my medical records.
From that moment, my life changed. I understood that, together, we could do something. He treated me as a man and as a human being. He was clear and straightforward, without giving me false hope, explaining that we would have to go back into the operating room in order to do what had not been done previously.
On January 26th of this year, I underwent surgery performed by Dr. Capuano at Villa Berica Clinic in Vicenza.
Today, I still have some stitches, but for several days now I have already been taking long walks, and I feel very well.
I have found a team of professionals, led by Dr. Capuano, who have followed me and continue to follow me closely throughout my journey toward recovery — a recovery that I can finally begin to see ahead of me.
Thank you, Dr. Capuano, for accepting without hesitation to help me despite the complexity of my condition following two previous surgeries.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
In Dr. Capuano, I found not only an excellent neurosurgeon who successfully treated my complex spinal and neurological condition, but also a professional with great humanity and empathy, who carefully supported and guided me throughout my post-operative recovery.
My name is Domenico Fornasiero, I am 77 years old, and I have been a patient of Dr. Capuano for several months. I first heard about him through word of mouth, as he had successfully treated members of my family and childhood friends.
From my very first consultation, I was impressed by the clarity and simplicity with which he explained my condition. The doctor explained everything perfectly, even to someone like me with no medical background. In particular, he clearly explained the need for surgery in order to resolve my problems.
The surgery was performed on November 17th. The following day, on November 18th, I took my first steps, and on November 19th I was discharged from the hospital, walking freely and comfortably as I had not been able to do for months.
I realize that my journey is not over yet, as I will need to undergo physiotherapy, but I am confident that, following Dr. Capuano’s advice, I will be able to return to my beloved mountain hikes.
I would also like to mention Sabrina and Martina, who have been extremely kind and helpful. My heartfelt thanks to them as well.
Domenico Fornasiero
My name is Andrea, I am 39 years old. In November 2024, I underwent surgery performed by Dr. Capuano for two severe cervical disc disorders and an osteophyte-related condition in the same area.
A complex problem like this should probably have been addressed sooner, but unfortunately, we are not doctors, and many times we simply carry on taking painkillers and other medications.
It was an extremely difficult experience, especially from a mental and emotional point of view, which is a fundamental aspect of the healing process.
Today, one year later, I am doing quite well. I have started playing sports again, and I am now also preparing to return to work.
Of course, things are not exactly the way they were before, but considering the condition I was in, I believe the surgery was a success.
Many times I doubted the surgery, my decision, and I also had to deal with the opinions of other doctors who had a different point of view.
I also struggled somewhat with depression. And perhaps — and this is something I would like to say to all of you patients — it was by changing my mindset that I truly began to heal.
Thank you once again, Doc. I hope that athletes all over the world can be cared for by doctors like you, with such a deep understanding of the human body.
A big hug to you and your entire staff.
Andrea
Dear Dr. Capuano,
I would like to express my deepest gratitude and admiration for the extraordinary surgery you performed, which saved my life.
The severity of my disc disease was such that, without your targeted surgical intervention using the double approach, I probably would not be here today.
I was not only deeply impressed by your professional excellence, technical expertise, and the precision with which you performed the surgery, but also by your humanity and sensitivity throughout the entire course of my treatment.
Your availability, kindness, and attention to my needs go far beyond medical skills alone.
You are a true example of a complete physician, capable of caring for the patient both in body and in spirit.
I will be eternally grateful to you for giving me back hope and a renewed quality of life.
With sincere affection and gratitude,
Gabriella Amadori
Patient operated on in Bra
19/07/2025
After several months of pain therapy, Dr. Capuano operated on me on May 28th at Isber Clinic in Varese.
Dr. Christian Capuano is an excellent neurosurgeon, a serious professional, and a truly wonderful person who takes care of all his patients and never abandons anyone. He always gives you courage and tells you things exactly as they are.
The day after the surgery, first thing in the morning, he got me up and, with his arm around me, walked with me along the corridor.
I am infinitely grateful to him because the surgery went well, and the pain that had been stabbing me for years in my lower back, buttock, and leg has disappeared.
I am now undergoing rehabilitation with Dr. Soraya, who takes care of me in every possible way. She is extremely professional, skilled, very kind, and empathetic.
Unfortunately, because my back is weak, I suffer from muscle tension in my back and neck, following two rear-end collisions and poor posture while working at my desk. I am confident that, with her help, I will feel better with this problem as well.
Sabrina, the doctor’s assistant, is professional, kind, thorough in her explanations, and patient with everyone.
Martina, his secretary, is always available for anything I need. She is very good at her job and, like everyone else, is always kind and helpful.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you.
