I saw Dr. Nguyen when she was in Mechanicsburg. She was wonderful! She was caring, informative and very knowledgeable. She diagnosed me with PCOS very quickly and started treatment right away. We started seeing her in November 2015 and were pregnant by January 2016 with one IUI. Our little boy was born in September and is about to turn 6 months old. Couldn't ask for a better doctor!

The best doctor at RMA. The other doctors are good-some are better than others. She is the most thorough and that is VERY important when it comes to the IVF process. You will never feel like *just* a number with Dr. Nguyen. I highly suggest her if you are torn between which doctor to pick at RMA.

Dr. Nguyen was so kind and patient with us. We had endured five years of infertility, eight miscarriages, and one ectopic. When we found out we were pregnant (after our first try) with Dr. Nguyen we felt terrified and were hesitant to get excited. She offered to do early ultrasounds to make sure that the baby was growing correctly. Week after week she eased our fears until she graduated us to our regular OB. I can't thank her enough for her compassion and wisdom. She makes dreams come true.

Dr. Nguyen and all the staff made us feel like part of their family. At our initial consult, Dr. Nguyen reviewed our information in detail and suggested a plan tailored for my husband and I. She clearly had a strong grasp of the available options, and those that were the best fit for us. All the while, we also felt like we were part of the conversation of developing our plan. Dr. Nguyen was always very kind and helpful in answering all of my questions, too.

Would highly recommend Dr. Nguyen and her staff. It made us feel at ease to be surrounded by professional, kind, and supportive staff when dealing and overcoming infertility. She answered all of my questions and included my husband in the process. Their office staff was pleasant and operated in an efficient manner. Words cannot say how much they made this journey more bearable.

Dr. Nguyen was a wonderful and caring doctor who i felt very comfortable with when it came to my fertility care. She answered all of my questions that i had and was very sweet the whole process. They were also wonderful at RMA at getting me in when i needed or had concerns.

Dr. Nguyen has a way of immediately making you feel comfortable. She's professional, yet warm and personable. She explained my options clearly, and made me feel like I was helping to guide the process. I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Nguyen and her staff at RMA! By the time we graduated to our Regular OBGYN (after getting pregnant on the first try!) I felt like we were saying goodbye to family.
