Bio:
Vanessa Nguyen, DDS, provides dental care to both children and adults. She values being part of a community health center because it aligns with her personal goal of delivering care to as many people as possible, especially the underserved. Her passion for helping others stems from her upbringing. As the daughter of first-generation immigrants, she grew up with limited resources and developed an appreciation for social support programs. Now, she uses her work as a means of giving back and caring for others. Dr. Nguyen prioritizes having conversations with her patients, knowing how much better patients’ experiences are when she can build rapport with them first. Outside of work, Dr. Nguyen likes cooking and trying new recipes, reading, running, photography, volunteering, and exploring Northern California.
