### Approach to care

I am committed to the wholesome care of every patient. Medicine does not exist in a vacuum; a person's health status is driven as much by their personal and social circumstances as it is driven by pathophysiological processes at the cellular and biochemical level. I look forward to partnering with my patients and my interdisciplinary health team to achieve a healthier life for our patients and our community.

### Outside of medicine

Outside of Medicine, Dr. Nguyen enjoys planning extended vacations with family and friends - has visited over 20 countries. He enjoys reading, dancing and karaoke.
