He was kind and empathetic. After suffering from this progressive condition since my twenties and having doctors like Capiello accusing me of “faking your pain”, he quickly diagnosed and treated what is wrong with my spine and hip. His only questions were about my symptoms. I have been in constant pain for weeks. He believed me. I’m so grateful. He said that I might get some relief by Saturday! Very grateful for some hope without being blamed for it hurting.
