Lucie Nguyen, MD

Hi, I’m Lucie, and I am so grateful to be returning to my hometown for residency!  I graduated here from Bishop Dwenger High School and studied Science Pre-Professional Studies and Theology at the University of Notre Dame.  After college, I attended Indiana University School of Medicine and pursued a combined MD/MA degree in Philosophy with a concentration in Bioethics.

 

I couldn’t be happier to have matched into FWMEP.  What most draws me to family medicine is the ministry aspect of the work we do.  Through relieving physical suffering as well as accompanying individuals and families through moments of hardship and joy, I hope to participate in Christ’s, the Divine Physician’s, healing work.  I have particular interests in developmental psychology, end-of-life issues, and lifestyle medicine, and hope to practice broad-scope outpatient medicine in the future.

 

My husband and I just had a beautiful baby girl, Josie, who has been a great joy in our lives.  In my free time, I like being a wife and mother as well as singing (mostly to my baby), playing piano, enjoying good films, and learning the secrets to a fulfilling life.
