Dr. Alessandro Dafiero

Dr. Alessandro D'Afiero is a pelvic perineal surgeon and urogynecologist with 30 years of experience. He trained in Italy, earning his degree in medicine and surgery from the University of Naples in 1982, followed by certification in obstetrics and gynecology (1986) and oncologic surgery (1991). He also holds a Master's in Health Systems Management from the University of Bari. His career has been built across leading Italian hospitals, where he founded and led specialized pelvic centers and directed obstetrics and gynecology departments.

Dr. D'Afiero specializes in medical and surgical treatment of female pelvic floor dysfunction. Over the past ten years, he has performed over 3,350 gynecologic procedures—including open surgery, laparoscopic (keyhole), and vaginal approaches—for both benign and cancerous conditions. He is particularly skilled in minimally invasive anatomical and functional reconstruction, treating complex issues such as pelvic organ prolapse (primary and recurrent), female urinary incontinence and obstruction, and fecal incontinence. He also offers non-surgical options for uterine fibroids and abnormal bleeding, including radiofrequency myolysis and endometrial thermal ablation.

His approach combines advanced surgical technique with a focus on preserving normal anatomy and function. He is a good fit for women seeking expert management of pelvic floor conditions, particularly those who prefer minimally invasive options or need treatment for complex or recurrent prolapse.
