About Thu (Stephanie) M. Nguyen, DO

  • Dr. Nguyen grew up in the suburbs of North Houston. When she is not working, she enjoys spending quality time with family and friends, including her fiancé and dog, Jake. In addition, Dr. Nguyen enjoys traveling, listening to live music, trying out new restaurants, board games, and hiking trails. She has several favorite Central Texas spots, including Sculpture Falls, Red Bud Isle, and Zilker Park. And, Dr. Nguyen says, “there can never be enough taco and BBQ places to try!”

I pursued pediatrics to build long-lasting relationships and to create a meaningful impact on a child’s health and wellness beyond the clinic. As a pediatrician, I have the unique opportunity to help advise parents through the adventures of parenthood and guide children through their journey into adulthood. My goal is to work together as a team to support and treat each child’s individual needs while giving them the tools to live a healthy lifestyle. I hope to become their confidante and will strongly advocate for children and their families.

    Always very nice staff. Feel loved here 😊

    The nurse was extremely sweet to our baby. Very kind and thoughtful. Dr was very observant. She seemed to really pay attention to little details. She checked in on what’s going on with our baby at home. Really seemed to care for her well being. Made me feel like she truly cared about our little one! We are first time parents so it’s nice to get suggestions and feedback!
