As a first time pregnant female and as my first time experience using government assistance for health care (I always had the top notch private insurance companies) I assumed I would get sub par help and treated with little to no consideration, and even discriminated. I can only say I was so very wrong. This facility is absolutely wonderful. Nurses are amazing and knowledgeable, staff is helpful kind, caring and attentive. The facility has dentistry, adult health, pediatrics, OB/GYN, dentistry, and a lab all within its facility making it very convenient to have all your needs met (plus a main registration desk that communicates your insurance benefits to each department so no need to fret about insurance info mistakes) . They take all the NJ family care HMO's and medicare and even have the ability to sign you up for medicare if you haven't signed up already at social services. From the very first minute I came to the office I received help and they provide and schedule you to have all the possible testing necessary for pregnancy. I had more non-invasive genetic testing than people I know with private insurance receive and that makes me feel very good. They make you very aware of what prenatal appointments you need and why and the nurses are always willing to sit and talk and answer any question. They don't have a sonogram machine there but they send you to st. peters in New Brunswick which is ok, they do 3D sonograms at no extra cost so I feel really pampered as my friends need to pay extra for this service in other facilities. If you have a problem they are very prompt and are very concerned with patient health. And they never let you leave without scheduling you for your next vistit which again only adds to their efficiency. Only negative thing is they have a long wait, about 30 minutes extra, because for every visit you must go to registry to be called and have you information confirmed but after that it is a breeze. They deliver in Trinitas so I cant use them for my delivery but I am going to continue my care there for as long as possible and get all my needs met by each department as I long as I live in the area.
