Kristen Le I am so thankful to have found Dr. Vu when my toddler had a fever in the middle of the night. Dr. Vu was kind, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive even during the late hour. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and calmly; and was able to call in a prescription right away. Dr. Vu kept in contact until he knew we were able to pick up the medication. He also followed up the next morning to check if my child was feeling better and to offer any additional support needed. Dr. Vu treats you like family -- thank you, Dr. Vu!!! Lesha Panoncillo Dr. Vu Nghiem was a great help. He was attentive, informative, and a real advocate on helping with my healthcare. Very efficient and the Telehealth makes access of care much better. I definitely recommend him and his team if you are looking for help KaSandra “kassigirlb” Baker I'm very satisfied with the care I've received from Dr. Vu and his team.

Kiana Remo-celzo Dr vu was very professional and caring, would recomend him to friends and family. Myrah Salcedo Physician was very professional and explained everything thoroughly. Great experience. Gimmelette Zafaralla Doctor Vu has helped me and my family in many ways! From not being able to get into my daughter’s PCP when she needed to be seen, to helping me with my weight loss journey. He made most of my tele health visits convenient for my situation! He is kind and very generous on the time he does spend on our visits as well. He did not disappoint! Thank you so much! Vicki Brooks Dr Vu Nghiem is a wonderful, generous human being who is passionate about delivering the best/thorough/timely medical advice he can. Not only is he patient-focused, he has strong relationships within the medical community who help him when he needs a specialist quickly. I only wish my doctors at home shared his skills/beliefs and practiced medicine as he does! L Y Dr. Vu Nghiem is an amazing person and doctor! He was very attentive to our needs and concerns, helped with online appointment process with text and phone call. I thought the number he provided would go to a call center, but he answered the call himself! Doctors like this are a rare gem indeed! We recommend him 100% and more. Thank you Dr. Vu! Happy 2025! Susan Freiman Dr. Nghiem performed a Christmas miracle. He was so kind and attentive and helped us out of a real jam. My aunt's freestyle 2 button broke and she was thinking of cutting the vacation short and going home, but the kind doctor took our call on Christmas morning and got a prescription sent in to the local drugstore here on the island. Forever grateful for his kindness and his concern.
