Joanna Nguyen, MD

Dr. Nguyen is a great Family Practice doctor. I have been her patient since January 2011. She is always thorough and kind. She takes her time and I never feel rushed. Her staff is friendly and easy to work with. There have been a few times where Dr. Nguyen has called me with test results too. That almost never happens these days. Thank you for providing quality care.

As always I had another great appointment with dr. Nguyen. She is super attentive, takes her time and I never feel rushed. I also never have to wait! I feel like she does not overbook so she can give quality care!

Dr. Nguyen was the most attentive PCP I have ever met.
I originally just booked my appointment to get some physical exam forms completed for a school program. This appointment turned into a full physical and review of my medical history and immunizations. She is a personable doctor with great bedside manner. She took a lot of time to listen and answer my questions.
I was accommodated and they even waived my first time patient fees because of my high deductible plan… Thank you!
The only change I would like to see is having the staff wear name badges. You can’t tell who does what, nurse., ma? It’s nice to know the names of people. I will be back and I recommend this office!

It was not the diagnosis that has caused me to complain. It is the way your office staff tricked me. I made an appointment to see an MD not a med assistant. I did not learn that I was not seeing the doctor until I was half way through my appointment. I will file a complaint when you try to bill my insurance.

I’ve been to Dr. Nguyen twice. The first time was late last Summer and the second time was recently (I’ve also brought her my bf and sons). I like that when you call, you actually get a live person and can make an appointment! I’m not talking an appointment 6 months out either, but rather that same week or perhaps the next week. LOVE that!
Her office is nice, but very plain (absolutely not one magazine to kill time in the waiting room ha!!). In fact, I don’t recall a single picture on the wall either? It is neat and clean though. which is more important the celebrity smoot:)
The staff is generally friendly. Not overly warm, but professional, no nonsense type.
Dr. Nguyen is polite, seemingly detailed, listens, and recaps everything at the end of the visit to ensure we talked about everything.
They also offer the ability to correspond with her via email… excellent tool for folks like me who travel a lot.
I would highly recommend!

Dr. Nguyen is a great Doctor. She listened to my concerns. I am very pleased to have her as my Doctor.

I have had more than one bad experience with this office. The receptionist was horrible, she does not care about Dr. Nguyen’s patients. I have worked in the medical/​dental field for many years and have never felt so mistreated. This office is only concerned with the almighty dollar. I have very good medical insurance and was still treated so poorly. I am not saying that this makes me more important but if I cannot get good or even slightly good treatment with great insurance than what would happen if Idid not have insurance at all? Where is the compassion for her patients? After seeing another Doctor I was diagnosised with a life threatening medical condition, with this offices mistreatment I could have lost my life! Don’t go to this office… You have so many other choices in the greater Folsom area. I guess her happy patients are healthy patients. Very sad for those of us that may have something that needs to be diagnosed and treated.
Thank God I did not give up after the incredible bad treatment in this office.

Dr. Nguyen is the definition of a doctor, very interested in providing quality care… not seeing x amt of patients in a day… its very apparent immediately :) she takes plenty of time with you and is not over booked. I love her… best PCP in the area!!!

Absolutely horrible service. Staff was rude and short. I’ll never return here

This is a great office. The staff is friendly and the doctor is extremely nice and compassionate. I felt very LISTENED to, and felt Dr. Nguyen took time out to listen to my concerns. After I shared with her, she did the usual battery of tests and then addressed my fears and concerns one by one. In the end she put me at ease, and my next time in, this showed even on my blood pressure reading (as its usually high due to nervousness when I go to the doctor)!
I highly recommend Doctor Nguyen. Did that almost rhyme?
