Although she enjoys treating chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension and obesity in her traditional practice, she remains passionate about preventing disease through treating patients "wholistically." She believes in treating each individual as a whole rather than a fragmented collection of systems. This patient-centered approach bridges the gap between treatment of disease and prevention leading to optimal living. This approach serves the patient looking for a more personalized and individualized treatment for their symptoms or conditions. Through bio-identical hormone replacement, detoxification, adrenal health, and natural supplements, Dr. Vu is able to address an array of issues while minimizing the use of prescription medications. Dr. Vu strives to enrich the lives of everyone she meets.
