March 27, 2017Michelle K.Verified patient
Every time (once a year) that I visit including today, Dr. Nguyen works tirelessly to make sure that I have the best contacts for my complicated eye situation. Even when I am already happy with my old prescription and brand and type of contacts, she helps me try the new technologies the manufacturers come up with and I dont even have to ask. She's just really patient and eager to help! And organized too. Not sure how she keeps track of everything that does and doesnt work for me.

I had a great experience with Dr. Nguyen and Vision First Eye Care. My first appointment was easy, quick, and professional. Top notch eye care!
February 22, 2017Kelsey M.Verified patient
She took the time to conduct a thorough exam and explain my results to me. I went primarily for an eye exam and eye health check. Dr Nguyen was wonderful and helped me understand changes in my eyes I had noticed.
September 8, 2016Jonathan D.Verified patient
It was very easy to find the location - clearly marked, very clean both inside and out. I arrived early since I knew I'd have new patient paperwork to fill out and she promptly took me into the exam room by my scheduled time. Her and her staff were very nice and friendly. All my questions were answered and she explained each thing she was doing during the exam and why. Despite having paperwork, an exam, dilation and then an eye contact fitting, I was out in just over an hour but didn't feel rushed at all. I'm so glad I found her! Perk that she is less than 3 blocks from my workplace :)
June 28, 2016Shannon I.Verified patient
Office location was convenient and easy to find. Dr. Nguyen was very personable and easy to talk to about eye concerns and clear in her recommendations.

Amazing! Clear! Concise! Fast! Friendly!
March 10, 2016Willa C.Verified patient
Tammy's office is very friendly, with prompt service and a helpful staff. We had a bit of a hard time finding the right contacts for me, but she did a good job offering me a few different choices. Ultimately we landed on the right one and I couldn't be happier.
January 30, 2016Ruslan Z.Verified patient
I liked the office location the most. Close to work and open late. She answered all my questions and provided solid explanations of everything. Only thing that could be improved would be their limited selection of men's glasses.

She's great, very pleased
November 18, 2015Anupriya S.Verified patient
Dr. Nguyen is very helpful, patient and flexible and helped me find lenses that fit my complicated needs! It's complicated, because one of my eyes is worse than the other, one has astigmatism and one doesn't, and I want to use one eye for distance and one for computer/phone. And of course it has to be comfortable too. She let me try many trials even when I got them confused, and helped me find just the right combination of contact lenses. Thanks Dr!!

The sales lady downstairs at the glass store is super pushy and unprofessional. Although the doctor is great, the sales lady made the whole experience not so great.

Dr. Nguyen is very knowledgeable and professional. She explained the issue that I have in detail and made good recommendation. I would highly recommended her.

Dr. Nguyen was excellent and the staff were very professional. She took time to explain and educate. My best eye appointment to date!

July 19, 2014Michael B.Verified patient
Dr. Nguyen took time to explain how my eyes changed and why I need reading glasses now. She started me on bifocal contact lenses and I can see far and near again!
More than 1 year agoDV
I'm glad the doctor did a complete exam including the pupil dilation, even though I was a walk-in. My other eye doctors never offered that part of my eye exam.

Dr. Tammy Nguyen was great with my 5 year old daughter. She made my daughter feel comfortable. Dr. Nguyen is great with her patients. She listens and explains the procedures.
