About
Dr. Ngan Van is a board-certified internist with 30 years of clinical experience. She earned her board certification in Internal Medicine and has built her career around listening deeply and treating the whole person. She sees patients 13 years and older at her Granger, Indiana practice.
Early in her career, Dr. Van ran her own private practice in Chicago. In 2004, she joined Beacon Medical Group, drawn to their values of Trust, Compassion, Integrity, and Respect. She spent nearly two decades there before founding True North Concierge Medicine. Her clinical philosophy draws on her parents' humanistic teaching: love others, strive to know yourself, and treat both with kindness and respect. As a woman of color, she carries a personal understanding of what it means to need to be truly seen and heard, and she makes that space central to every patient encounter. She integrates acupuncture, functional medicine, and narrative medicine alongside conventional care. Her passion for caring for aging patients also led her to build ancillary services for members whose family members live at a distance. "
