About

Au-Co Nguyen, DO, studied osteopathic medicine at Midwestern University in Arizona and went on to complete a family medicine residency at Community Health of South Florida, Inc. Dr. Nguyen also completed a geriatric fellowship at Aventura Hospital and Medical Center in Florida. She chose a career in geriatric medicine because she wants to make a difference in patients' lives, both mentally and physically. Geriatrics is a subspecialty needed for the aging. With the growing aging population with complex health issues, such as polypharmacy and dementia, she wanted to be part of this subspecialty that is able to give a different approach in medicine and give patients the best quality of life.

Dr. Nguyen’s grandmother played a big role for her to become a geriatrician. She had Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, which also caused many other health issues. Dr. Nguyen would like to help her patients live the best lives they can.

As a physician, I will listen to my patients and try different approaches to their health. Medicine is an art and is not black and white. I make sure my patients' needs are a part of their health plan.

Dr. Nguyen grew up in Huntington Beach, California. Outside of medicine, Dr. Nguyen enjoys doing yoga, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and playing with her dog, a springer spaniel named Lady, who is trained to hunt for truffles.

She's a great doctor, attentive to questions and provides strategic health directions for better outcomes in future visits. She truly does a physical exam beyond the typical checkbox. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a general practice physician.

I cannot say enough good things about my primary physician. She truly listens, is straightforward, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. I always feel like my concerns are taken seriously and addressed thoughtfully.What stands out most to me is how comfortable she makes me feel talking about things that can be difficult or daunting to bring up. I tend to come in knowing exactly what I need and asking direct questions, and she never makes me feel rushed or dismissed—she meets me where I am and helps guide me with care and professionalism.She is giving with her time, smart, compassionate, and by far my favorite doctor I’ve had. I’m very grateful to have found someone who makes healthcare feel approachable and supportive. Highly recommend.
