Dr. Tam Nguyen with the help of God saved my life. I had cancer of the larynx and the tumor was blocking my air way making it hard to breathe, and to keep my blood oxygen in the 90s. He and his team preformed a total larengectomy on me. He explains your treatment and what to expect, he has wonderful bedside manner, is always professional but compassionate at the same time.i highly recommend Dr. Tam Nguyen and his team.

My husband saw Dr Nyugen a year ago during which time a hearing test was performed, and my husband’s ears were cleaned along with his hearing aids. My husband was told to return in a year for a follow-up visit. We were contacted recently by a VA provider who scheduled this appt. My husband is 100% disabled through the military. We made it to the dr and waited for 1 hour and 45 minutes to see the dr. When the dr finally came in, he looked in my husband’s ears and said they did not need cleaned and there was nothing he could do for him. Said they were not allowed to look at his hearing aids. Also, he stated he could order a new hearing test but it wasn’t necessary. With that 5 minute nonsense over with I put our coats on and walked out of the office. I would never recommend this provider.
