Cold, flu, and COVID-19 symptoms

Fever, cough, congestion, and body aches can point to a common cold, seasonal flu, or COVID-19, and telling them apart usually calls for an exam and, when appropriate, testing. If you're feeling under the weather in Elizabeth, NJ, we offer same-week sick visits to evaluate your symptoms, order testing when needed, and recommend the right treatment or rest plan.

Sore throat, sinus infections, and allergies

A sore throat can be a simple cold, strep throat, or seasonal allergies, and each calls for a different approach. We evaluate cough, sore throat, and sinus symptoms in the office and can test for strep when it's suspected, along with managing ongoing seasonal or year-round allergies.

UTIs, minor injuries, and other everyday concerns

Urinary symptoms, minor back and joint pain, skin rashes, and other everyday health concerns don't need a trip to the emergency room. We treat these common issues during regular office visits, right here in Elizabeth, NJ.
