Can anyone recommend a Dr. that does travel meds / inoculations? It seems a bit of a specialty.

dr_nick_Riviera - he posts right here on JCLIST. He's an outstanding and caring physician, and a graduate of the HU Medical College.

Alas, my excellent doctor (Dr Messihi in Hoboken) retired! Yes, I know I could/should go into the city, but I like having access to a fairly local GP for less serious stuff; Heights, Hoboken, JSQ rather than Downtown JC.

Thanks!

Thank you for posting this, I was not aware. He was my Primary Care Physician for the last 2 years and an all around decent guy (and good doctor). I hope his family is doing okay.

Dr. Raj, one of the most sincere human beings I have ever met, passed away this past Friday.
I know, he was the pcp to some of jersey city residents, hence I am sharing this.

Looking for a recommendation for a personal doctor. I'm living downtown (Hamilton park), I'm a 32 year old guy, and I'm trying to find a doctor locally I can go to instead of the health clinic type places I've been going to at the behest of my new insurance provider. Thanks.

Dr. Pappert on Jersey Ave. is very good. His website is:

Hi, shopping for a new doctor in the JC area. Can anyone recommend a good GP?

Thanks!

I have been happy with Dr. Luhana at Newport Medical. The cosmetics of the clinic are not great, but he has been consistently good to me.

Is there a good general physician in the downtown area? I've been sick for weeks and it's not getting any better, so it's probably time for a doctor's visit. Would like to stay in / around downtown JC for convenience's sake.

TIA.

Dr. Raj is quite good, but that office is a mess. The staff is very disorganized, lots of turnover. Might not matter for normal situations but I had a condition that required frequent, regular visits for a while and it drove me insane.

I have worked with Dr. Raj(dr.Jeyachandran Rajasekaran) for years and he is my PCP. I totally recommend him, and Dr. Zaha too.

they both practice out of 99 Montgomery st.

I sort of don't want to tell you because maybe then he'll get to busy... but I will. Dr. Jey Raj, but he goes by Dr. Raj. He is located at Montgomery and Warren on Montgomery beside Komegashi. I've been using him for years. He's really good.

Looking for a primary care physician in the downtown area.
Anybody have a good recommendation?

Any thoughts on Dr. Jeffery Pappert? Saw his ad in the latest Jersey City Digest.

Thanks!

I also opted to go to a Manhattan doctor.

I'm sure there are professional, reliable doctors in JC and Hoboken, but finding one has been a headache, and we're just a short PATH ride away from some of the best primary care physicians and specialists in the world.

Still no call from Dr. Ali on those test results btw. Unbelievable.

I'm at least as lazy as the next guy, but I've come around to the fact that you'll be MUCH better off going into the city. I had a gastric episode years ago that was undiagnosed even after E-room visits & office visits & it landed me in St Marys for a week. It recurred recently, and I went to a GI in Manhattan. He immediately sent me for a X-ray & then a CAT, and I was diagnosed and on meds that day. The GI confirmed that even in his experience getting a kid treated at home on LI that the city level of quality is higher.

A recent discovery is that there's a cluster of great docs around the Eastside Columbia-Presbyterian on 60th & Madison that's easy to get to with an almost no walking transfer from the PATH at 33rd to a R or N. It took me less than 45 min door to door. A bonus is that if you walk to the F at 63rd to get back it's a free transfer so the subway round trip is 1 fare.

I saw Dr. Sabia Ali for one year. She was around the corner from my home. I didn't feel too welcome. There was no enthusiasm from her. I was at the receptionist counter once. She was sitting at a computer behind there. It was just her, the receptionist and me. She didn't even look up to say hi, even though she should know that I am the next patient.

I decided to go to a doctor in Manhattan.

I noticed that the other female doctors are gone from the Portside Medical. What happened? Not enough business?

Customer service counts here too! Just like with tacos and falafels.

I have had superior treatment at Horizon Health Center by doctors Jeannette Sujovolsky and Mervet Asfour as an adult female, and my daughter sees Dr. Sodhi there as well. They have offices at Summit Avenue beside the DMV and at 714 Bergen Avenue, although the Bergen Avenue office is moving (yeah!) to 115 Christopher Columbus Avenue soon. Their number is (210) 451.6300.

Both offices have clinic hours as well as appointments. Staff is courteous and the doctors are thorough, personable, respectful.

Hey guys,


Had an abysmal experience with Dr. Sabia Ali at Portside Medical.

I followed through with a prescription she gave me for some testing and I've been unable to get her to tell me the results, despite repeated phone calls and assurances from the office that she would get back to me.

I was so annoyed that I ended up getting the report from the radiology center myself.

I've never had a doctor completely fail to get back to me with test results, and I'm at a loss as to why it happened in this case.

Figured it was worth passing along the story.

Portside Medical is open on the weekends.

Does anyone know Primary Care Physicians offices with weekend hours? I'm a Nurse Practitioner Student looking to do my internship on the weekends and need a decent amount of hours. Any ideas??

wondering if anyone has a recommendation for my boyfriend for a primary care physician downtown? he prefers a male doc and hasn't had luck finding a local one who will take appointments and has either early or late hours (and he doesn't want to schlep to nyc or hoboken if he's sick) danke!

Can anyone recommend a good walk-in clinic? I may need a prescription but I don't have insurance.

Dr DeMarco is my doctor. Excellent place for emergency appointments/last minute and other issues. I highly recommend him. My friends have used Dr. Balacco and they liked him too.

Does anyone have a good general doctor they would recommend - Either in downtown NYC, Hoboken or Jersey City.

Dr Witt ... you can't be serious.

A friend of mine wouldn't allow her to offer care or place a band-aid to his pet dog let alone a human being!

Go to Dr. Witt. Great personality and very thorough.
