She has been a staff psychologist at Milpitas since 2001 and works with patients with many diagnoses with wide ranges of severity. She has expanded her clinical focus in the area of Co-existing disorders... patients who have mental illness along with chemical dependency diagnoses.

Dr. Dong's area of interests is in providing treatment adults who were sexually abused as children, as well as working with Vietnamese refugees who have experieneced emotional & physical trauma in their premigration, migration and post migration periods.
