Dr. Dino Q Nguyen, MD

I saw Dr. Dino Nguyen when I went to Memorial Hermann GoHealth Urgent Care due to symptoms of chest pain, tightness, palpitations, and shaking. Dr. Nguyen dismissed my shortness of breath, saying I couldn’t be having issues breathing if I was able to describe why I was there. He paused when I listed a new medication, giving me a look that made me feel like he suspected I was an addict in withdrawal. He assumed this was anxiety despite me clarifying it wasn’t the issue and he did not perform a physical assessment—no heart or lung check, no BP recorded. The MA said they couldn’t get my BP due to me shaking, but no one tried again or manually despite me asking that this be done. My chart falsely states a physical exam was done. Dr. Nguyen admitted the EKG wasn’t normal and said he wouldn’t fault me for going to the ER but left it up to me. He also dismissed indigestion (a known heart symptom in women) as GI-related. I left feeling unheard, dismissed, unsafe, and shocked that no basic… assessments were done for such serious symptoms. I ended up in the ER.
