Del Rey MD Welcomes New Physician To Its Sinus, Aesthetics and ENT Practices

Del Rey MD, home to leading medical clinics which specialize in conditions of the head, neck and sinuses, announced today that Monica Kieu, D.O. has joined the staff of the growing practice. A graduate of Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, California, Dr. Kieu joins the Del Rey team from Toronto, Canada, where she completed her facial plastics and reconstructive fellowship. She will focus on general otolaryngology (“ear, nose, throat” or ENT); facial plastic and reconstructive surgery; and surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation and hair restoration treatments. The announcement was made by Farhad Sigari, M.D., founder of Del Rey MD.

“We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Kieu to the practice,” said Dr. Sigari.  “She combines very strong clinical education and training with a true passion for providing the highest standard of care to the community. She shares our focus on continually seeking the most advanced treatments available for our patients’ conditions.”

A native of California, Dr. Kieu received her medical degree, with honors, from Western University of Health Sciences.  She completed her residency in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at Michigan State University/Detroit Medical Center, where she was chief resident.  She currently serves as assistant clinical professor for the Department of Surgical Services at Michigan State University. Most recently, she completed a prestigious fellowship in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Toronto. She has authored numerous papers and presentations for peer-reviewed medical journals and conferences.

The daughter of an anesthesiologist and a pediatrician, Dr. Kieu is a skilled practitioner with a broad range of academic and clinical interests in head and neck conditions.  She is also a committed humanitarian-physician, having performed facial reconstructive and head and neck procedures in underserved provinces of Vietnam and Malawi.  In her many medical missions, she has performed general otolaryngology procedures as well as cleft lip and palate correctional surgeries, which restore appearance, dignity, and function to her patients.

Dr. Kieu is a member of many major medical organizations, including the American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery; American Osteopathic Colleges of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery; American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery; American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery; and the American Rhinologic Society.
