Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2024
Dr. Nguyen did back surgery on me and truly performed a miracle. I have been in pain for over 20 years and through several surgeries with another surgeon. I woke up from surgery with virtually NO back pain at all! Seeing the x-rays post surgery literally made me cry it was so perfectly straight, replacing old hardware with new. My road to recovery has been the easiestI have ever experienced. While I am dealing with “surgical pain” there is no other pain! I do not and have not taken pain medication since day 2 in hospital. I am careful to adhere to care instructions and still working with retrainingmy muscles to work correctly but beyond that I am thrilled with the outcome. Dr. Nguyen truly saved my life. I am looking forward to my next chapter in life pain free thanks to him.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
