Marvin Najjar, MD, is a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist practicing at WHASN West Valley in Las Vegas, Nevada. In his 11 years of practice, his patients have frequently shared their appreciation for how he listens and engages with their concerns. His goal is to make patients feel at ease by covering all concerns, differentials, and plans of care in a way that’s easy to understand.

The continuity of care to treat patients of all ages and phases of life drew Dr. Najjar to obstetrics and gynecology. After medical school, he completed his residency at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. Dr. Najjar then practiced in Bay City, Michigan, for five years before relocating to Las Vegas. 

Through his medical career, he has developed a special interest in high-risk obstetrics and minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. Dr. Najjar bases his practice on evidence-based guidelines and continuously reviews recent literature on emerging topics to maintain a dynamic practice style.

In his free time, Dr. Najjar enjoys traveling, fitness, and trying different types of cuisine. He and his wife Shirley love dining at new restaurants and spending time with their two children, James and Charlotte. He is fluent in English and Chaldean.

Christina Nguyen, MD, FACOG, is an experienced OB/GYN providing compassionate care to women at WHASN West Valley in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

As a Division 1 collegiate soccer player, Dr. Nguyen was on track to become a professional until recurrent injuries and long hours in rehabilitation caused her to change paths. Her desire to help people live happier, healthier lives eventually led her to medical school. 

While in school, Dr. Nguyen had the unique opportunity to shadow her mother, who was in her OB/GYN residency program. During her first observation, Dr. Nguyen watched her mother provide compassionate coaching through the pushing phase and deliver a healthy baby to a welcoming family. That experience sparked her interest in the OB/GYN specialty. Her decision to officially pursue the field was solidified by the combined benefits of being trained in gynecologic surgery, primary care, and patient continuity.

Fifteen years later, Dr. Nguyen is still passionate about obstetrics and gynecology and considers it a privilege to help patients navigate the complexities of the female life cycle. Her patients value that she spends time with them to understand their health, including physical, mental, and emotional concerns. This allows her to customize a health management plan based on a patient’s unique background, including demographics, social class, sexuality, religious beliefs, education, etc. 

Dr. Nguyen's special interests in the field are minimally invasive surgery, including advanced robotic techniques involving sacrocolpopexy, large uterine fibroid interventions, and complex endometriosis.

The OB/GYN field is ever-evolving, and Dr. Nguyen makes an effort to stay current on recent literature and attend conferences to ensure she’s providing the best care for her patients.

Dr. Nguyen is the recipient of several accolades, including Vegas Inc’s Top Doctors 2022.

In her free time, Dr. Nguyen enjoys spending time with her husband, three children, and her dog. She also enjoys hiking, biking, cooking, pilates, HIT workouts, and traveling.
