Dr. John Venetos, MD

I made appointment to see him in Sept 2022. No staff member in his office was wearing a mask including the Dr himself despite masks were still required at Swedish Hospital facilities. He did put mask on until I made a comment about it. He took my history, asked me to sit on table. Lifted my blouse without informing me that he wanted to listen to my heart and examine my abdomen. He then told me next to lie down on my side. He pulled my shorts down then inserted his finger into my rectum without informing what he was planning to do. This office needs to go back into traininglon how to treat patient's with dignity, safety and infection control measures! I informed my Primary MD of my experience then went ahead cancelled my procedure and did not hesitate to find another GI MD

that is how you built reputations in your case G R E A T one.i was proud of you and thanks to greta for having you on her show.you looked like an angel.stay well humanity needs you.

Dr. Venetos is an excellent Doctor. He is knowledgeable, amicable, and straightforward. If I have one compliant it is that he is exceptionally busy, so it is hard to get the full time you need to process and ask questions. His staff are all very friendly and helpful. It is evident that they care about you, which is rare considering how impersonal many offices can be.

I was told I needed a colon resection surgery after a colonoscopy. I decided to get a second opinion and Dr Venetos was able to remove the tumor during my colonoscopy. No surgery was needed. What a relief!

Very professional. Staff friendly. Location good.
