While being friendly, Dr Nguyen proved to be a TERRIBLE doctor. I struggled w/ anxiety related insomnia for years. After prescribing many anti-depressants (none of which worked as doctors equate insomnia w/ depression vs. anxiety too quickly) Dr Nguyen prescribed Elavil. While it worked (because as an SSRI goes, it treats anxiety & depression) it also caused me to gain 118 pounds over several years. Dr Nguyen was then encouraging me to lose weight as I was at risk for Type II Diabetes & weight gains impact on my self-image and esteem was terrible. After learning about the lb. gain side effect from another doctor, I stopped Elavil and lost 83 pounds. My naturopath -a good doctor who actually looks at things holistically -now says that Dr. Nguyen should have: 1) warned me about side effects re lb. gain, taken me off Elavil as my weight continued to increase and 3) looked at why Elavil was more reliable than other meds for insomnia. I now have a doc who does all 3! BUT BEWARE DR NGUYEN!!!
