Dr. Gino Tutera

I was reflecting on my Son's birth 30 years ago at Eisenhower Hospital in Rancho Mirage, CA. I was saddened to read that he was no longer with us. He was such a gracious and patient doctor with a delightful sense of humor. I remember hearing him pull up on his Harley while I was in the waiting room and would say to myself "Yay! he's here!" Thank you, Dr. Tutera, for helping me bring my Son into this world. I'll never forget you.

I was just reminiscing with my Son about his birth & delivery by Dr. Tutera 44 years ago when I found his obit. What a sweet man he was & how we all laughed after he told me that I had a Son, I replied, " It's a boy, it's a boy, oh thank you Dr. Tutera which he replied, "I had nothing to do with it". I haven't found a Dr. like him since!! Rest In Peace Gino

I just learned of Dr. Tutera's passing. Dr. Tutera delivered my son 40 years ago in February. I was a young and single but he did not pass judgement and only provided the best care for me during my pregnancy. I remember sitting in his office and he walked in to see me, I was getting very close to delivery and very scared. He said "it will be ok little mama". My mother was an RN in OP, KS and worked in labor and delivery so I was very fortunate to have been put in his care. While reading...

I just learned of Dr. Tutera´s passing and my heart is broken. He was the kindest and most caring doctor ever! He diagnosed my endometriosis and worked with me for several years to enable for me to conceive. I will never forget when I finally got pregnant, he was so happy that he cried! He delivered my daughter in 1984 and I was able conceive again! My youngest son was born in 1987 in New Jersey so unfortunately Dr. Tutera never knew that. Dear Dr. Tutera - you will always live in my...

I was contemplating my son's upcoming 28th Birthday, and began to wonder if Gino had ever managed to retire. I was so saddened to see that he had passed. My mother was one of his nurses at Hickman Mills Clinic in Grandview, MO. He was so kind to me as an 18 yr old girl with cervical cancer. I have always been grateful for his treatment, compassion, and honesty. When all was said and done, it was unknown whether I would ever have children, and I never had the opportunity to let him know...

I just came across Dr. Gino Tuteras obituary this morning. My heart is broken at the loss of this great man and Doctor. I was blessed when Gino took over my Doctors practice in Rancho Mirage, CA. I had an early aged hysterectomy due to complications. Dr. Tutera started the hormone replacement therapy which changed my life. He was my daughters Gyn as well. Ive never found a doctor before or after Dr. Tutera that has the qualities he had. He was the kind of person that made you feel safe and...

I just found out that Dr Tutera has passed. Although it's been a couple of years, it's crushing to me to have found this information. Dr Tutera was my first OB/GYN. I'll never forget our first appointment, I immediately fell in love with his kind and gentle spirit, he was such a wonderful man and gifted doctor. He took such good care of me during my pregnancy and after. He delievered our son in 1978, and each year on July 29th I remember what Dr Tutera did to save my life 40 years ago. ...

so sad that he is gone. May he RIP. Remembering those years at Rockhurst college. class of 67 made me smile...he was one of a kind.

I'm so sorry to hear of Gino's passing.He delivered both of my children. I followed him from the plaza to grand view and Overland Park. He helped me through a very difficult first pregnancy and through number two. He was a very comforting and gentle man. I've though the years I've thought of him often. Rip friend.
