Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

New appointment with obgyn
I have recently seen Dr. Nguyen for the first time. She was very personable. She was very happy to answer any and all questions I had. Before my procedure she explained every step and reassured me that with each step I understood the procedure and felt ok. Each time I see her she is friendly, and willing to take the time to make me feel comfortable and I think she is a awesome physician.

Performed wrong procedure
In 2021 my life was altered in ways I could never have imagined because Dr Nguyen performed the wrong procedure on me. I was to have a LEEP procedure to remove a cervical polyp. The procedure was much more painful than I was told. As a mom of four I am no stranger to pain but my hair was soaked with my own tears as I endured terrible and prolonged pain. She had to have known once it became much harder and more complex and yet she kept going filling two specimen cups with chunks of me that I later found out was a fibroid and typically those are removed under anesthesia with recovery time and pain medication. I was terribly burned from the LEEP procedure that should have been stopped once it was discovered that she was dealing with much more than a polyp. I have had to have counseling since then and still have not recovered from the trauma. I may never see an Obgyn again because I cannot trust anyone to be gentle or kind with me since this was done.
