Provider Profile
Margaret Dinhluu, DrPH*, MPH, CHES
Margaret has been serving the Orange County community for over 15 years in the areas of public and corporate health. She earned her undergraduate degree from the University of California at Irvine in Biological Sciences. Margaret continued her passion for health education by attending Loma Linda University where she has obtained her Master’s degree in Health Promotion and Education and will complete her Doctorate degree in Public Health with an emphasis of Preventive Care.
Her love of public service began while she was still in high school and later became involved as a volunteer in 1996 with several community projects including many teen-focused projects such as: Teen Pregnancy Coalition, HIV Prevention Awareness, and a campaign for prevention of drug abuse. Most notably her efforts were recognized through a Community Partnership Award from the LA Times in 1998 by developing effective programs for seniors in the Vietnamese community including: diverse healthcare education classes and forums, health screening and referrals, English as a Second Language, and Citizenship for Naturalization.

Margaret believes that in order to make a difference in an individual’s life you must go beyond what you have accomplished and mastered. Her personal philosophy about life is best echoed by the words of Emerson, “To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded - Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.”
