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.

Dr. Nguyen treated my Mother following a mild heart attack. He recommended a pacemaker and defibulator. After the surgery, the follow up was minimal. She was transported to University of Chicago Hospital in a helicopter. I feel like the surgery was done without proper testing prior to the procedure. Often times pacemakers are recommended simply for the money. My mom passed away two weeks later. I would not recommend this cardiologist to anyone. I miss my mom every day. She was just 70.

About Me

biography

Cardiology is an exciting field in which many cures have been achieved and many new treatments are being developed. However, the simplest and most natural treatments are often the best. When lifestyle changes don&rsquot produce the desired result, we then prescribe medication or intervention.
