Andrea A. Ngo, MD

Dr. Andrea A. Ngo grew up in the Bay Area and did her undergraduate studies close to home at UC Berkeley. After graduating with Distinction in Molecular Cell Biology, she ventured east to New York City and completed her medical degree at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Ngo is truly appreciative of the excellent education she received at Einstein, but missed the temperate California climate, so she returned to the Golden State for residency at UC Irvine. Ultimately, after having lived on both coasts, she decided that home is still the San Francisco Bay Area. Dr. Ngo has been practicing as a hospitalist physician locally for the last fifteen years.

As a hospitalist physician, Dr. Ngo strives to provide the most comforting and least stressful hospital experience for her patients. She realizes that being in the hospital can be traumatic, even frightening. Her job is to work with other providers and ancillary support staff to ensure that her patients receive the best possible care in a supportive, healing environment. Dr. Ngo sees this as a collaborative effort, a partnership with her patients and their families. She hopes you will not need to be hospitalized. But if you do, Dr. Ngo will do her best to ensure your hospital experience be one that you can look back on favorably.

Dr. Ngo believe that good health is achieved by eating a healthy balanced diet, exercising regularly, avoiding excess of substances, recognizing the mind-body connection and the importance of periodic recharging. Ultimately, it is about being good and respectful to oneself and taking responsibility for one’s own health.
