About Dr Nguyen

Whole-person care,
not just today's symptom.

I trained at the University of Adelaide and completed specialist GP training as a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (FRACGP). I've built my practice at Pro Health Care Glenelg for the long term, and I'm not going anywhere.

I love everything about general practice, the variety, the relationships, and the privilege of being someone's doctor across all stages of life. I have particular clinical interests in preventive health, men's health, mental wellbeing, chronic disease, lifestyle medicine, and weight management, but I'm passionate about all aspects of GP care.

Every appointment is longer than average, enough time to be properly heard and leave with a clear plan. New patients are always welcome.

Areas of care

Particular interests within a
broad passion for general practice.

I enjoy all aspects of general practice. The following are areas where I have additional training, experience, and genuine clinical passion.

Preventive Health

Proactive assessments, cardiovascular risk, cancer screening, and immunisations. Building a baseline for lifelong health, before problems develop.

Learn more

Men's Health

Hormonal health, sexual health, prostate, cardiovascular risk, and the mental health concerns men often don't raise. Care across every stage of a man's life.

Learn more

Chronic Disease

Diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, COPD, asthma, structured management plans built around your life and reviewed regularly.

Learn more

Mental Wellbeing

Depression, anxiety, ADHD, stress, without judgment. GPMHSC accredited for Mental Health Treatment Plans, with access to allied health support.

Learn more

Weight Management

GLP-1 therapies, structured lifestyle programs, and referral pathways. Sustainable weight management within a holistic health plan, not a quick fix.

Learn more

Lifestyle Medicine

Nutrition, movement, sleep, the foundations that underpin everything else. Evidence-based lifestyle strategies alongside clinical care.

What to expect

Healthcare that starts with
actually listening.

Every appointment at Pro Health Care Glenelg is designed to give you more, more time, more answers, and a doctor who remembers your history.

01
Book online or by phone

Use HotDoc to find a time that suits you, or call us on 08 8295 2167. New patients are explicitly welcome, no referral needed for a GP.

02
A longer appointment by design

A minimum of 20 minutes means we can actually cover what matters to you, not just the presenting complaint. Bring your list.

03
Clear plan, no jargon

You'll leave knowing exactly what we're doing and why. Investigations, referrals, follow-up, all explained in plain language.

04
Ongoing care, not one-off visits

Continuity matters. The goal is a GP who knows your history and can spot changes over time, not a different doctor every visit.

Common questions

Everything you want to know
before you book.

Yes, new patients are always welcome at Pro Health Care Glenelg. You can book online via HotDoc or call 08 8295 2167 during business hours. There's no referral needed.

Appointments here are longer than average, enough time to be properly heard, ask questions, and leave with a clear plan. Good medicine takes time, and rushed consultations don't serve anyone.

Telehealth is available for existing patients who have attended in person within the past 12 months, or who are registered via MyMedicare. If you're a new patient, your first appointment needs to be in person.

Yes, absolutely. I'm GPMHSC accredited, which means I can prepare Mental Health Treatment Plans, giving you a referral pathway to psychology and allied health support directly through your GP. Mental health is a core part of general practice, not a separate thing.

The practice is based in Glenelg and serves patients from across southern Adelaide, including Brighton, Hove, Seacliff, Somerton Park, Plympton, Morphettville, Marion, and many other suburbs. Patients are welcome from all over South Australia.
