Ninh Nguyen
"My surgery was on January 16th, 2008, I began the process of my consultation with Dr. Nguyen on November 20th, 2007. My first impression of Dr. Nguyen was that he was someone who was very straight forward, which I consider as a good thing for the life altering surgery I was considering. It is my understanding from the team in the recovery room that Dr. Nguyens patients are only allowed to be put in private rooms after surgery and let me tell you, I may have been in revovery for a while but when I got to my room it was a private room. Dr. Nguyen and his team came in to see me see me the next morning, my white count was elevated and Dr. Nguyen basically said he didn't care if I had to stay for 2 weeks, they would get the white count down, and figure what was going on. Within 1-2 days my white count was normal. The office staff at Dr. Nguyen's office is nothing short of exceptional everyone from the girls at the front desk, Pam in the back office, Sharron, Gina, and all of the Interns. Everyone is willing to listen and answer questions. Future patients should know to make sure you ask questions because you will get a truthful answer. Aftercare is emphasized in so many different and positive ways. You have several meetings with Sharron who is the coordinator of the program and Gina who is the dietician, you are given phone numbers and email addresses for them. You are also given a very helpful book about you pre and post care that I still refer to almost on a daily basis. Along with the monthly support groups if you have a question for any of the staff it is usually answerd within the same day that you ask it. I would rate the whole experience from Dr. Nguyen, the staff, the hospital so much better than expected, working in the medical fields for several years I can say I was so pleased with every experience I have have from November 20th to today. And I am glad I made the decission I made and the medical team I made it with.<object width=\"585\" height=\"360\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.obesityhelp.com/shared/flash/WeightHistoryChart/WeightHistoryChart.swf?username=ladoux01\"><param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\"><embed src=\"http://www.obesityhelp.com/shared/flash/WeightHistoryChart/WeightHistoryChart.swf?username=ladoux01\" quality=\"high\" width=\"585\" height=\"360\"></embed></object>"
