Dr. Gianutsos was in charge of discharge instructions that incorrectly claimed I had no infection in my toes. Despite the original plan as having been to keep on IV anti-biotics pending a culture result - he discharged me early - and the discharge instructions included the wording "unresulted tests: none" - this turned out to be false - there was an unresulted test and it came back positive for a staph infection. Doctors at Swedish Medical Center claimed for five weeks that all my labs looked good - never informing me of the positive result (apparently they never bothered to read it.) Dr. Gianutsos approval of me being discharged with no oral anti-biotics helped this undiagnosed staph infection sink into the bone. I nearly died when this develeoped into Sepsis five weeks later. I lost two toes - needlessly - due to Dr. Gianutsos doing zero supervision of the resident doctors inept work - and reckless discharge - apparently I was not important enough to give even the slightest thought to - despite that I had pre-existing conditions and doctors warned upon admission this was life threatening. No oral antibiotics upon discharge ! Even my Aunt's dog got anti-biotics after a harmless scruffle with a neighbor's dog -- I am scarred by this for the rest of my life - and have to walk on this 3-toes freak foot as a result. Thanks a lot Doctor!

Dr Gianutsos is a very kind doctor. He spends a lot of time with the visit. He is super smart. I feel like he saved my life.
