I appreciated his time and patience explaining everything to us after months of frustration of not knowing how to best treat our son.

We were very lucky to schedule so quickly. Both doctor and nurse practitioner were knowledgeable and professional, good with kids.

Dr. Nguyen has been so very reassuring and helpful through our entire process. He and the staff have always been so helpful and accommodating- thank you for everything!

My little guy (age) keeps saying, unprompted, "the dermatologist was a very nice person" and I couldn't agree more! Kind, helpful, and answered all my questions!

The doctor and the NP we saw today were AMAZING! They were so incredibly kind and helpful! I had so many questions/issues about my son and they went above and beyond to make me understand everything! Incredibly impressed and pleased!

Very professional and respectful to me and my child. He followed up next day to inform me of an update.
