Joanna Nguyen, MD
Dr. Nguyen is board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine. She received her medical degree from the American University of the Caribbean and completed her three-year residency training locally in Sacramento. She went on to work for Mercy Medical Group before deciding to start her own practice in Folsom in 2008.
Dr. Nguyen believes the first step in providing good care is to make patients feel at ease and to spend time with her patients to listen to their concerns before a personalized treatment plan is determined. She finds it rewarding to partner with her patients to work towards the mutual goal of good health.
Dr. Nguyen's other strong interest is in aesthetics. She has advanced training and is certified in microneedling, laser therapy, and neuromodulator injection.
In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her family (including her sweet baby dog, Ellie), catching up with friends, and trying different restaurants.
