High Blood Pressure care at home in Union County

A blood pressure taken after a stressful drive and twenty minutes in a waiting room is not your blood pressure. Home readings are a better guide, and treating the wrong number in either direction causes real harm.

Managing high blood pressure without the trips to an office

We cover Union County from the Summit and Westfield area through Cranford and Scotch Plains down to Elizabeth and Linden.

A clinician comes to your home anywhere in Union County with a portable exam kit and your chart already open. Visits run 45 to 60 minutes, which is the time it takes to examine you properly, review every medication in the house and write a plan your family can follow. Whether you are looking for a house call doctor, a visiting physician or in-home medical care for a senior parent in Union County, this is that service.

Getting the number right

We check your own monitor against ours, show you how to use it properly, and set up a simple record. White coat hypertension leads to overtreatment, and overtreatment in older adults causes dizziness, falls and fractures.

Adjusting treatment safely

We check blood pressure sitting and standing, because a drop on standing is the thing that puts people on the floor. Kidney function and electrolytes are monitored when medication changes, with the blood drawn at your table.

After a hospital stay in Union

If you have recently been discharged from Overlook Medical Center in Summit or Trinitas Regional Medical Center in Elizabeth, we can usually visit within two to three days to reconcile the discharge medication list against what is actually in the house. We are independent and not affiliated with any hospital system.

Towns we cover in Union County

Berkeley Heights, Clark, Cranford, Elizabeth, Fanwood, Garwood, Kenilworth, Linden, Mountainside, New Providence, Rahway, Roselle and every other town in the county.
