History
Established in 2009.
Insightful Minds was founded by Cat Dang, D.O. in 2009 with a small office in Newport Beach, CA. Dr. Dang's goal was to integrate expert evaluation, medical treatment, therapy and other treatment approaches for clients in the most effective and accommodating way possible. Along the way, several amazing specialists and staff members with similar goals joined the team. Then, in 2011 a new office was added in Irvine through affiliation with Hoag Hospital. In 2012, the smaller offices were merged into the new Newport Beach location. The new location accommodates multiple waiting and treatment rooms with more space, more comfort, easy access to parking, and easy access to freeways. It allows staff and specialists to collaborate, learn, and continuously improve in a single location where technology, space, and resources are all brought together.
