I liked Dr. Nguyen, and I think he gave me good advice and care. But, as I am unfamiliar with sonograms (which was to be the next step in my care) and with the sonogram facilities in the local area, I was still a little unclear as to what was expected of me next after the visit. I had to ask my (dumb) questions pretty forcefully to have the next steps fully explained. The office staff seemed more interested in their socializing than with ensuring that the patient really understood what was happening.

Dr. Nguyen was very nice and really listened to what I had to say. I made a followup appointment to return again. :-)
While my experience is always good, I always wait a very long time at this office.
Dr. Nguyen is very thorough. Communicates well and is very pleasant.
I feel like he was rushing. Other than that he was great

Excellent doctor. Listened to all my problems and annotated everything that I said. Very attentive and listening to any problems I was having.
Verified patient
He is a very tentative doctor and explain things in detail and willing to listen to patient and provided recommendation. Well, he went thru the things fast, you have to ask him to slow them.
One of the best doctors I've ever seen!

Best Doc east of Mississippi River.
Its a rip off. annual exam resulted in paying tons of money for the testing agencies, equivalent to 6 months premium while discovering nothing other than what i am already aware of and declared in the history. They did not caution about that huge expense when i told them about the expectation that annual exam is free.
Excellent choice of physician

Excellent Doctor, very conscious and thorough...
Verified patient
I was so pleased to have chosen Dr Nguyen due to his already great reviews on this site. He made me completely comfortable even talking about awkward medical issues, and was very attentive and professional. The staff at his office were all helpful, friendly, and efficient, and I left completely satisfied. Highly recommend.
Verified patient
Quick and efficient. Rare in the medical world.
Awesome!
Verified patient
I was pleased with his problem-solving skills, patience and willingness to answer all my many questions to my satisfaction. We are still working together on follow-up procedures so I will be seeing him again in about a month. He did more blood tests than other doctors I've seen, which turned out out great because several new and important discoveries were made. The office staff seemed fine, but some of the nurses, I feel, need training in how to communicate information in a more professional and complete manner. I conveyed this to Dr. Nguyen.
Dr. Nguyen never fails to be kind, courteous, and extremely helpful. Many thanks for the friendly bedside manner, as well as the fast and efficient treatment of my medical concern!
