Dr. Long Nguyen, MD

I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Long Nguyen. When I asked questions about the surgery he recommended, such as whether my cyst was too big for a minimal operation or if a larger surgery was necessary, he rudely responded, 'If you know how to do it, then you don't need me.' This dismissive attitude was very unprofessional and unhelpful.Moreover, he appeared to show discrimination based on perceived social or educational levels. When I asked for clarification on how the surgery would be performed, he asked, 'What is your level?' I inquired if that was relevant to the visit, and he said yes without providing any explanation for his question.His technical competence is also questionable. He stated that he only removes cysts growing on the side of the ovary, but when I mentioned that my cyst was inside the ovary, he agreed but offered no further information. This inconsistency was confusing and raised doubts about his knowledge.Overall, I would not recommend him to others.

I was excited to see his high ratings and he was recommended by another OB/GYN I was seeing (due to his specialty in minimally invasive/ laparoscopic surgery). Unfortunately, he had poor communication and active listening skills. In addition to that he was microaggressively condescending. Luckily his nurse practitioner noticed and did her best to try to make the interaction more palatable. His behavior made me uncomfortable to move forward with him performing any surgery on me sad to say.

Amazing outcome. Dr. Nguyen did a fantastic job. He Explained the procedure that I was having. He also assured me that everything was going to be OK. The only thing I had trouble with was coming out of the anesthesia but overall I feel fantastic. Thank you

Excellent physician and surgeon. I experienced caring and high quality treatment before, during and after my surgery.
