Lam Nguyen, MD – Edinger Medical Group

Where do I begin with Dr. Nguyen? In our household, she isn’t just my daughter’s pediatrician, she is a true hero. She has also come to be a trusted friend and confidant, which is exactly what any parent should want in a healthcare provider.
I will try and make a long story short, but in June 2015, I brought my otherwise healthy 6 year-​old in to re-​check her eyes and ears following a bout with pink eye and an ear infection. Dr. Nguyen was also following up that 2 weeks earlier when we initially came in, her blood pressure was elevated. She re-​rechecked her blood pressure (multiple times that day) and it was still high. I had no possible explanation for it. Dr. Nguyen insisted that further tests be conducted and immediately had us seen at Orange Coast Memorial. I won’t get into specifics, but my daughter has since had a successful surgery and been diagnosed with a rare disease that will have to managed for her lifetime. She has a great prognosis.
The fact remains, I would not be writing this glowing and optimistic review if it weren’t for Dr. Nguyen and her diligent, aggressive and thoughtful care of my daughter. My family and I are so grateful for her.
I will also note, now that my daughter primarily see’s specialists in LA, Dr. Nguyen and I still speak after every appointment we have. She is always responsive and helpful — she also is empathetic to it all — which is appreciated. She keeps tabs on what is happening with my daughter and does anything and everything she can to help facilitate swift insurance authorization requests. Again, so appreciated.
She is our hero.
