Tien Nguyen, MD's Online Review Report Card

He is an extremely accomplished dermatologist with great bedside manners. My husband Paul has been going to him for years and is very satisfied with all his work and staff. 10 thumbs up!

Mmy name is jorge Valentin i had my on 8/30/2022 surgery by dr tien Nguyen him and brian and hes team did an awesome job on my lumbar spine l5s1 and my pain before my surgery is gone i have lot of pain from the surgery but i am very happy with doctor tien Nguyen tnk u so much tk all hes staff….but the hospital suck horrible service

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOSPITAL! ESPECIALLY DR. NGUYEN BECAUSE OF BIM WE NO LONGER HAVE OUR STRONG AND LOVING FATHER/GRANDFATHER. HE DID OUR FATHERS BRAIN SURGERY WHO HE SAID WOULD HAVE NO RISKS OR MINIMAL COMPLICATIONS. NEVER SHOWED HIS FACE AFTER MY FATHERS SURGERY TO EXPLAIN WHY HE WASNT WAKING UP AFTER THE SURGERY. WE NEVER GOT AN ANSWER ABOUT WHAT WENT WRONG. MY FATHER SPENT 25 DAYS AT THE HOSPITAL NEVER WAKING UP AFTER THE SURGERY AND SADLY PASSED AWAY DUE TO THE POOR ACTIONS OF THIS TERRIBLE SO CALLED surgeon. IF HE WOULD'VE JUST TOLD US ONE THING THAT WOULD'VE CAUSED HIM ANY COMPLICATIONS WE WOULD'VE NEVER GONE THROUGH THIS USLESS SURGERY. HE TOOK OUR LOVED ONE AND WE HOPE WE CAN AVOID THIS WITH OTHERS TO STAY AWAY FROM HIM!! WHO DOESNT HAVE THE GUTS TO MAN UP TO HIS MISTAKES. YOU TOOK SOMEONE SPECIAL FROM OUR FAMILY WHO WE WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SAY SORRY FOR ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN TO HIM.

Had three bad discs in my neck and bad hardware in my back. He removed and replaced the hardware in my back and fixed my neck all at the same time. I feel great considering I had both surgeries done at the same time.

My primary doctor referred me to this place . I should've known from the beginning, since they have a hard time just scheduling an appointment, the person on the phone was very confused . It took a month for me to see a "doctor " . The place is old and the room was dark. I never saw a doctor, just the assistant , I had some skin concerns that she said was just age and she burnt it with nitro. It didn't work and after 3 weeks I still have the same problem.

I've been going to them for a decade and have been to numerous dermatologists and getting facials for some time and they are still my number one go to. If you are going for an acne facial ask for Jenny bc she's extremely meticulous and gives great facials and she's wonderful at extractions. Dr. Nguyen is so kind and always takes care and there for his patients. They have two offices in Fountain Valley and Irvine which makes it convenient. I love this group bc they care about the details!

I'm writing a review regarding the staff... I have been waiting to see doctor for a long time, but that's insurance issue, well I had an appointment then got text that my appointment had to changed because doctor was not going to be available... I could choose between 7:30 or 8:30 Am because if traffic I chose 7:30 am, via text then I called to confirm... 5 reminders that my appointment was at 7:30 am on 7/14... then on 7/13 one message in the morning : " friendly reminder blah blah... same date and time. Then on 7/13 yet another text " friendly reminder .... At 8:30 am!!!! WTH !!! Yeah!! They've changed my time... out of nowhere! Anyhow the doctor was very kind and explained everything along with his assistant

I had an epileptic seizure and fell and broke my neck. Dr Nguyen was the surgeon that explained everything to me and told me the risks. I was told I wouldn't have any range of motion of my neck ever again but I have full range of motion. I've got titanium plates, screws and air cages in my neck replacing C4-C7. I went from being told I was lucky I wasn't dead or paralyzed to seeing Dr Nguyen and having my neck back. Thank you Dr Nguyen

First visit parking was easy! Super close to freeway staff was very friendly and professional . Doc was first rate !! had small procedure in and out in less than 45 minutes! All about first impressions and they made a great one !

Ive been going here for a couple of years and the staff is wonderful and Dr Nguyen is hands down THE BEST

Basically the "Walmart" of dermatology; they do a lot and also go through a LOT of patients. I've been to this place 4+ times now for my eczema, I just don't think he spends enough time explaining things. I've been with Kaiser and other insurance plans and my experience with other dermatologists seem to focus more in care versus getting you in and out.The male doctor (sadly you would think basic introductions would be done to know your patient but I've been here a decent amount of times and he doesn't even give his name; no time, he's gotta get you out) put me on some medication and all he said the side effect would be were "possible blood clots" but you're not at risk...not until I was on it and had to research it as well that acne was also a side effect. Of course he was not thorough to discuss this with me.

Easy to get an appointment. Takes most insurances. Pleasant to deal with.

Went in for an appointment 2 days ago. The front desk girl isabell helped me and explained my insurance coverage to me. She was very knowledgeable and knew exactly how to explain it so that I understood. She had lots of patience and was very kind. In the back room my medical assistant Lizbeth answered all my question she was very helpful and kind.

I was referred to this facility by my PCP. But the facility refused to see me, because I refused to sign the Arbitration agreement. First time I was denied medical attention for refusing to sign the Arbitration form. That raised a RED FLAG for me, so I said NO thanks. When a medical facility is more worried about a form than the patient, then there is concern for worry. Even the AMA state that a patient is not required to sign this form to receive medical services. Reported the issue to my medical group provider and requested another referral to another dermatologist.Also they require you to wear a mask inside the facility, but the receptionist did not even wear one. I should have read the prior reviews.

Genuinely concerned, made quick diagnosis, follows through with treatment and results

Unorganized front office staff. You are just a number here. Cramped waiting room. Mask up or you are out yet the receptionist has a mask over her mouth only. Filthy rooms. No consistency on who to see, are you really getting diagnosed correctly? Best to get a second opinion. If you ask about a certain procedure they will bark at you and say insurance will not cover that yet you have plenty of money to pay for something you are just asking about. You are judged, in my opinion, by the type of insurance you have. Hurry hurry take care of the situation move on to the next cattle in the waiting room. Best to do some research to see what else is out there for you, you might actually be treated with respect and valued and possibly get a health professional that knows their job efficiently and you will be able to see the same person next time you come in. I have given this place more than optimum chances to redeem itself unfortunately..........I'm done.

I've been a patient of Dr. Nugyen for the past 6-7 yrs and the quality of service that's provided by Dr. Nugyen, his Assistant and the whole office staff has always been top quality of service. Thank you very much for your services. Jack Abajian AH

Dr. Tien Nguyen's derm office in FV has been wonderful! Although it does get busy here (they run clinics/studies as well), I am admitted within 5-10mins of signing in. On the initial visit, I was seen by Dr. Nguyen for my consultation. He was so kind made sure all of my concerns were addressed before leaving. As my needs require an esthetician, my follow-ups for treatment are with Jenny, who is beyond amazing!! Anyone who's had extractions done knows how painful it can be, but she's thorough and supportive in the process. Not to mention, I'll get some goodies sent home with me! Thank you Jenny for keeping me looking baby fresh :DHighly recommend them for any derm needs!

Run away as fast as you can. Referred by my primary care physician. Incompetent and useless. Did a biopsy on me and didn't use enough anesthesia. Didn't perform pin prick test and just started cutting away. I could feel every cut and suture. Didn't know any better so I just toughed it out. Second of all, Dr took the wrong biopsy sample. Supposed to take one old spot and one new but he didn't take the new spot I pointed out. Took two old spots so my test came back inconclusive. No answers to anything and did a hack job on my leg for nothing.

I cannot say enough about Tien Q. Nguyen,MD. Three times, he has removed skin cancers leaving absolutely no scar. Imperceptible. Impeccable skill.I commend his humanity. I shared with Doctor Nguyen the recent loss of my son. He shared his experience of losing a loved one and some of the things that I might expect. I've never had such a caring physician. I was deeply touched at his humanity.I've been impressed in the last two years that I have gone to this office with the profound organization and professionalism of the staff. Previously, elsewhere, an appointment might have taken all morning with the various stages of waiting. At OC Dermatology, visits to the physician are on time. No wasted minutes of various waiting stages. I am so very happy at the efficiency. Murnez Blades
