Biography
Dr. Nguyen has said that he sees his role as serving to oversee the clinical care of patients, provide guidance and training for our trainees, manage and supervise the day-to-day clinical operations, all the while being cognizant of financial responsibilities and availability of resources. Another major priority is collaboration with other services and departments. As Chief of the Psychiatry C/L Services, Dr. Nguyen has worked diligently to improve care and treatment for psychiatrically ill patients in the medical and surgical settings. "Good patient care means providing the best medical opinion and treatment available for the patient. But in this day and age, it also must mean being knowledgeable about resources, collaborating appropriately with colleagues, and being mindful of health care costs and dollars. Setting a good example in this is the best type of mentoring for our young doctors."
