Never rushes through my visit. Listens to what I have to say and answers my questions. Very relaxed manner and he is very easy to talk to.

Dr. Tran treated me for an inguinal hernia. In the initial office visit he spent plenty of time with me explaining the surgical procedure and answering questions about this and other health issues. He also spent adequate time atthe hospital explaining things to me and my spouse before and after the procedure.The surgery went extremely well. Moderate pain for first 36 hours after the surgery was well controled by medication. Afterward no meds required.Three weeks after the procedure still have some swelling and occasional mild pain. The incision is hardly noticible.I would recommend Dr. Tran to family or friends without any reservation. Hope he is available for me if I require surgery in the future.

I feel that Dr. Tran is very professional, answers questions, patient, and seems very ethical. If you are looking for a surgeon I definitely suggest you to go talk to him before you fall in the hands of a mediocre surgeon. I was treated well by him and his staff. Surgery went well.

Vanhien Tran... Money Money Money... after my surgery... I was in recovery and I saw him.. he looked at me.. and didn't even come to ask me how I was doing!!!! oh! no... I asked him about what could happen after surgery and he said.. It's not going to happen.. No.. He looked in my eyes.. Well, he wasn't truthful.. He seemed trusty. He is polite, but it's all about money.. He wants to get you into surgery as soon as possible.. He has his ways to convince.. playing like.. you can do it.. or you can do it later.. but.. you may have to have an emergency surgery later.. ... patients are just business.. Now, apparently he is a good surgeon, but I feel deceived by him.. He could have been truthful.
