Planning your first visit
Office hours
All North Jersey Health & Wellness offices are open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Call 201-588-3491 to schedule.
What to expect
Your first appointment is a comprehensive evaluation, so plan for more time than a routine check-up. A provider will take the time to understand your history, what you’re experiencing now, and what you want to change — then talk through the options with you. There’s no pressure to have it all figured out before you come in.
Insurance and payment
We know cost is often the first question. Our office will verify your benefits and walk you through payment options before your visit, so there are no surprises. We’re in-network with Medicare, and for other plans we’ll check your out-of-network benefits on request. We accept all major credit cards and offer payment installments. See our insurance and payment details for the full picture.
