With over 25 years of medical research experience, primarily focused on cancer and infection Tung X. Nguyen joined the Seraph Medical team to play an integral role within the sophisticated scientific and medical team at the practice – which strives to treat diseases and chronic illnesses through the use of science-based medicine and integrative therapies that not only attack the disease, but also bolster the body’s own immune system.

Through his research in the Molecular Oncology Department at the John Wayne Cancer Institute, as well as his work at the Molecular Host Defense Laboratory at UCLA and the Molecular Immunology Department at the Beckman Research Institute at City of Hope Medical Center, Tung Nguyen is keenly aware of the complexities of chronic illnesses and recognizes that taking a textbook approach to developing treatment protocols rarely serves the patient optimally. 

After graduating from the University of California – Los Angeles (UCLA) in 1995 with honors, where he was recognized for Exemplary Academic Achievement –  making both the Dean’s and the President’s list – he was an integral part of dozens of research studies that focus on the nature of disease and the role the body’s immune system can play in fighting chronic illness. His work has been published in the Journal of Microbiology Methods, The Journal of Peptide Research, The Journal of Leokocyte Biology, The Journal of Thorasic and Cardiovascular Surgery and the Journal of Cellular and Microchemistry, to name a few.

His work with the Seraph Medical team utilizes state-of-the-art laboratory testing to not only accurately identify disease and how it is functioning within the patient’s body, but also how the patient’s entire body is functioning overall. With these powerful diagnostic abilities, the team can precisely determine how every aspect of the patient’s body is operating, so they can then create a tailored treatment program that effectively supports eradicating illness and support healing. 

Highly respected by his peers in the medical scientific community, Tung X. Nguyen’s research findings have been presented at medical science conferences all over the world, and he is passionate about contributing to research that focuses on harnessing the power of the body’s own systems to reinforce treatment protocols and improve outcomes

When he isn’t in the lab, he enjoys spending time with family, being outdoors in nature, and meditating.
