Default Dr Nguyen is great! Knee felt like my own immediately.

Phillips Hospital in Orlando.

I was “chipping and putting” in three weeks, playing a full round in five. Used a cane around the house for only a few days post-op.
Dr Nguyen is now using an ambulatory surgery center for his surgery. Location is in Orlando. I had my knee done last year and was there by 8:30 am and back in the Villages by 3:30 pm. Playing golf in 4 weeks, all sports in 3 months. I even went skiing.
