Since
the time this summary was presented to the Texas State Board of
Medical Examiners (TSBME), I have obtained
the actual lab report on the tests ordered by Trung Nam
Nguyen,D.O. in
the East Texas Medical Center's emergency room.
In
response to abnormal cardiac results, TWO comments were
documented--each stating the abnormal cardiac markers must be
correlated with clinical findings.
One
comment, referencing my mother's abnormal Troponin level
stated: "Troponin levels greater than 0.4 ng/mL, but less
than the reference range could indicate early
myocardial infarction [heart attack] and may require
follow-up. All cardiac marker studies MUST [their emphasis] be
correlated with clinical findings."
And
still, even with two consecutive abnormal EKGs and this lab report
plainly stating there were abnormal cardiac enzymes, the ER staff
NEVER SAID A WORD about a possible heart problem.
East
Texas Medical Center Regional Healthcare System is also known as
East Texas Medical Center Hospital, is part of the Tyler Texas
hospitals system providing healthcare in Tyler, Texas. It provides
cardiology, pediatrics, childcare, wellness, vision, neuroscience
and neurosurgery, prostate, colon, heart, ankle, leg, and arm bones
care, while easing pain. Orthopaedics is used mostly by elderly
patients. These services are usually paid for via managed care,
insurance, PPO or HMO. For a patient requiring medical home care,
ETMC Tyler has a full staff of nurse and physicians. It even has
doctors of osteopathy providing care for surgery, heart, urology,
women, back issues, cancer, spinal care, neuro care, eye problems,
back pain from bad posture, and rehabilitation services. ETMC
Regional Health Care System (along with Trung Nam Nguyen, DO (Doctor
of Osteopathy) provides primary care and secondary care, full of
medical negligence, medical malpractice, and doctor negligence.
Medical records from ETMC services are provided freely to anyone. An
emergency room visit to the ER gets no life saving treatment from ER
staff, especially in heart care and cardio care. The hospital staff
ignores abnormal heart results and doesn’t care about saving a
single life or saving lives. The treating doctor, hospital staff, or
another treating physician will send a trauma patient for an
autopsy, resulting in an autopsy report. Seems abnormal. ETMC
facility does not care about results, abnormal or not. Tyler, Texas
deserves better from hospital staff, treating physicians, and other
doctors. Health care is negligent for family and family care.
Emergency Medical Service EMS provides rural services for seniors,
but death from cancer, a tumor or tumors, lung problems, spine
problems, or joint problems is a risk. Trung Nguyen does osteopathy
for family health care, even cardio. Care can be provided at home or
in a family center. East Texas children deserve life, but won’t
get it via ETMC health. Or doctor Trung Nguyen. ETMC health care is
a joke. The hospital is a joke. Why even provide medical employment?An East Texas Medical Center physician is not cognizant of
health.
