Dr. Napoliello originally trained when Laparoscopic General Surgery was evolving in the early 1990's. His entire surgical career has had a foundation in Minimally Invasive surgery. His training led him to the Mayo Clinic's first Minimally Invasive Fellowship, based at that time in Jacksonville, Florida. This is what brought him to the state from the North East. He has established himself as a leader in the County and State with most Minimally Invasive techniques.
Patients often panic when they are told that they need to have a surgery. The office of David Napoliello, MD is the ideal place for patients who with to pursue a Minimally Invasive surgery alternative in Sarasota, Florida. Minimally invasive surgery is handled via small incisions instead of one large incision. Small surgical instruments, tubes, and video cameras are then used to perform the surgery.
“Dr Napoliello was referred to me by another doctor. He subsequently repaired my large hernia laparoscopically and I was back to normal life in a very short time. I have since developed another hernia and I trust his opinion to not perform surgery at this time but take a more pragmatic approach to managing my hernia until it interferes with my quality of life . He is very personable and actually looks at you and examines you rather than typing into a computer”
