About Vinh Nguyen, MD

I always try to listen to patients' concerns, take time to explain their options and encourage them to make the best choices for their health. I love the challenge of medicine and the art of helping patients and their families. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, playing tennis, listening to music and cheering for San Diego sports teams.
