Heidi Chang
Originally from Fresno, CA, I moved to the Bay Area after attending the University of San Francisco and am currently pursuing a master's in Healthcare Administration. I have a background in Graduate Medical Education and am ecstatic to have joined the Internal Medicine Residency Team. I am here to offer administrative and educational support in a variety of areas during your training here.
My work here is proudly supported by my partner and my two rescue pups, Luna and Harper.

Nelly Nguyen
Residency Program Administrative Assistant
I was born and raised in Oakland, CA, and I'm excited and proud to be working in the Internal Medicine Residency Program here at Highland Hospital. I'm inspired by this program that houses a team of strong, caring and incredible physicians, faculty and residents that believe in making a difference. I love Disney and if you catch me at a good time, you’ll probably hear some Disney songs coming from my office.
