Pham, the owner of Irvine Village Urgent Care, pleaded guilty in October to one count of conspiracy to distribute controlled substances after he “conspired with licensed pharmacist Jennifer Thaoyen Nguyen, 52, of Irvine, who operated the Irvine-based Bristol Pharmacy, to illegally distribute narcotics, including opioids,” the DOJ said.
