From an early age, Dr. Lina wanted to choose a profession that would allow her to help people, especially in underserved communities. Wanting to give back to her community, coupled with her need for a hands-on profession, led her to dentistry. First and foremost, Dr. Lina believes in treating every patient with dignity, respect and empathy, as if they were her own family. She believes in providing personalized care and is firmly opposed to a one-treatment-plan-fits-all approach or the over-treatment of patients. A quote from one of her mentors, “The mouth is the gateway to the rest of the body,” sticks with her to this day and summarizes her belief in a holistic approach to dentistry.
Dr. Nguyen brings an upbeat, lighthearted and positive disposition to our office. She knows that the success of a practice is built on trust and integrity, which she always exudes in her interactions with patients and colleagues. She values her relationship with her peers and she works to foster a positive work environment in which everyone can excel as a team. When it comes to things she enjoys best about working at Mosinee Smiles, her absolute favorite moments are with her patients. Seeing their smiles and newfound confidence is the very reason she chose this profession. She cannot wait to have more of these experiences with our Central Wisconsin patients.
When not helping our patient family, Dr. Lina is often interacting with her own family. She grew up in a large household: she’s the youngest of eight children and has 15 nieces and nephews (and counting!). In her free time, she really likes to travel (she’s visited over 15 countries) and find new places to visit, especially new restaurants. When she’s not traveling or hanging out with her family, Dr. Lina loves to spend time with her fiancé and her two puppies, Thor and Lulu.
