Preventive & wellness care

Advanced General Medicine is accepting new patients for preventive and wellness care in Elizabeth, NJ, including families from Union, Linden, Roselle, Hillside, and Newark. Dr. Vasquez Duran provides thorough physical exams, age-appropriate screenings, and vaccinations designed to catch small issues before they become bigger ones — the foundation of primary care done right.

Whether you need a routine annual physical, a Medicare Annual Wellness Visit, or vaccinations for school or work, our Elizabeth, NJ office makes preventive care straightforward. Dr. Vasquez Duran takes time to review your family history and lifestyle so screenings and recommendations are tailored to you, not a generic checklist — and if a screening uncovers a chronic condition like high blood pressure or diabetes, we can begin managing it in the same visit.

Annual physicals and preventive screenings

A comprehensive annual physical is the cornerstone of preventive care. During your visit, Dr. Vasquez Duran reviews your health history, checks vital signs, and performs age-appropriate screenings for conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol before symptoms appear. For patients 65 and older, we also offer Medicare Annual Wellness Visits, which focus on a personalized prevention plan rather than a physical exam.

Vaccinations and school & employment physicals

Staying current on vaccinations protects you and the people around you, and our office provides routine immunizations for children and adults, along with PPD/tuberculosis testing when required for school or work. We also complete school, college, and pre-employment physicals, so students and new hires in Elizabeth, NJ can meet their requirements without a separate trip to urgent care.
