About our care for Mid-City patients
Mid-City is the broad band of San Diego neighborhoods strung along the University Ave corridor — City Heights, Fairmount Park, Cherokee Point, Castle, Colina del Sol, and the area around Euclid Ave. Patients from across Mid-City reach our office in just a few minutes because we sit right on University Ave between 52nd and 54th Streets, next to Vien Dong Supermarket. We see a steady mix of multilingual families, refugees and immigrants new to the U.S. dental system, working parents who need Saturday or Sunday-by-appointment hours, and longtime Mid-City residents who have been coming to Nhat Khanh Dentistry for two or three decades. Our front desk handles patients in English, Vietnamese, and Spanish, and we are experienced walking first-time patients through Denti-Cal and Medi-Cal coverage without surprises.
Directions from Mid-City
Starting point: University Ave & Euclid Ave
From most Mid-City addresses, the fastest route is to head east or west along University Ave until you reach the block between 52nd and 54th Streets. From the western edge of Mid-City near 30th Street, expect about 8 minutes. From central Mid-City (Euclid Ave / Fairmount Ave), it is closer to 5 minutes. From eastern Mid-City near College Ave, head west on University Ave for about 6 minutes. Our suite faces University Ave with a Vien Dong Supermarket entrance immediately next door — most patients use that as their visual landmark.
Public transit
MTS bus Route 7 runs along University Ave and stops within a block of the office. Route 1 and Route 215 (Rapid) connect Mid-City to downtown and SDSU and intersect near our block. The Euclid Ave Trolley Station is about a 10-minute bus or rideshare connection.
Parking & access
Our office at 5296 University Ave (Suite I) has free street parking along University Ave and 53rd Street, plus the shared lot for Vien Dong Supermarket next door. Wheelchair-accessible entry and ground-floor treatment rooms.
