About Van Anh Nguyen, OD

Undergraduate Education: James Madison University, Bachelor's of Biology; Optometry School: Pennsylvania College of Optometry (Salus University); Professional Achievements and Associations: AOA, MOA; The reason I became an optometrist is because I have always enjoyed interactions with people and believed that I can go to school, train and make a small difference. In my spare time, I enjoy taking Orange Theory classes, running, cooking, reading, home remodeling, and new experiences when time permits. My favorite part of helping my patients is talking to my patients. When patients share their vision/medical concerns and personal stories, I can understand, empathize and better assist in giving them the best vision and recommendations. I appreciate seeing the same patients every year and and getting an update on their journey.

About Nancie Nguyen-Marynell, OD

Undergraduate Education: Butler University, Bachelor's of Science in Biological Sciences; Optometry School: Indiana University, School of Optometry; Professional Achievements and Associations: American Optometric Association, North Carolina Optometric Association, South Carolina Optometric Physicians Association, Piedmont Optometric Society (NC), Catawba Optometric Society (SC); The reason I became an optometrist is because I have been wearing glasses or contacts since age 7 and, like many children, did not know what I couldn’t see until I got my first pair of glasses. I wanted to make a positive impact on others and help improve their quality of life, as my childhood optometrists did for me! In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my family. My favorite part of helping my patients is helping patients live their best lives through good vision and providing education about their eyes. It’s very gratifying to fit a patient- either young or young at heart- in glasses or contacts for the first time and watch them smile simply because they can see better!
