Very fast service. I was 30 minutes before my appt time but they took we right back and Doctor Tran saw me within 5 minutes. I was very impressed

Dr. Tran was fine. The after experience was terrible. The nurses were so rude. The minute I opened my eyes, they were ready to get me out of there and said very rude things.

09/08/2025

Dr Tran is very patient and listened to me. He answered all my questions honestly and openly. His work is not just about surgery, but his a connection to understand how to help someone like his own family. He's truly a great person with a big heart.

This is one of the best experiences I've had with any hospital. The my chart app is awesome. It shows pretty much all your info like, test results, appointments, Dr's notes and more. It's pretty neat.

05/21/2025

Dr Tran is an excellent, knowledgeable surgeon and provider. I found him to be personable and empathic.

05/12/2025

If the doctor can get me in for a medical procedure sooner, get it approved by my health insurance so that I can have better health, be in better health, and be able to get this drastic weight off so that I can feel healthier and live healthier and be healthier and to work alongside, you know, with the doctor's office, you know, on behalf of anything while I wait for the procedure to get approved by the insurance company because this procedure is very important to me as I move forward in my life.

05/14/2025

Dr. Tran and his staff were absolutely outstanding. I very much appreciate their attention and their interest and their care for me. I would certainly recommend Dr. Tran and his staff to friends, associates, and anyone that I know that I think might benefit from his services. Dr. Tuan Tran, absolutely an outstanding physician. I am extremely pleased to have him on my team of physicians to care for me and to see me down to the finish line. Thank you.
