COVID testing & Rapid testing near me in Essex Fells, NJ

It was the evening of July 3. I had experienced clogged sinuses along with gum and tooth pain previously but this time it was much worse than usual. This time I was also experiencing pain on swallowing.  Over a period of time (years) I was in a vicious cycle between my dentist, Endodontist, and ENT. No one could figure it out. The dentist and Endodontist felt that a back tooth might need extraction.  None of these were not respected practitioners.  So in going to Urgent Care at the Nathaniel Place location my expectations were modest.  But I felt awful.  The young woman that performed my intake was very professional and noted all my symptoms. Then PA Timothy While came in to examine me. He too was extremely professional. He LISTENED  carefully to all my symptoms - whole cloth - and noted as well the symptoms that I lacked, such as running a temperature.  My final helpful “add” to describing my symptoms to him was that “I just feel really crummy”.   PA White absolutely nailed the diagnosis.  He felt that it was sinus related and that a post nasal drip was causing inflammation and creating all this pain. He clearly EXPLAINED why he felt that this was the correct diagnosis. He prescribed a very short course of Prednisone plus a 14-day treatment with Fluticasone Proprionate.  Within one day of taking the Prednisone and using the spray I was on the mend.   I no longer felt anxious going into the holiday weekend.   Two dentists and an ENT couldn’t figure it out. Timothy White did.  I don’t often answer surveys and I am fairly critical in general. But, though belated, I felt it necessary to detail my experience and give a little more than “a shout out”.  In my humble opinion PA White would make a great D.O.  My best, Elena Schwartz

Very competent staff . Answered all my questions without hesitation. Will definitely return on my next trip from Canada

Didn’t make an appointment but it was smooth and simple to get in line and take care of paperwork. Very good experience that I can simply walk in and get answers while also feeling terribly sick.

Staff was amazing - Dr Megan was especially phenomenal and extremely helpful / caring. I wish I could plan my sporadic urgent care visits around her schedule!

Excellent experience. Staff, cleanliness, explanation of tests and treatment.

X ray tech Shirley very sweet and helpful dr Hughes very professional and helpful as wel

Woke up not feeling well took a Covid test at home came positive but just wanted to be sure so made an appointment to be seen and get a medical result I was Covid positive they were very nice very thorough and gave me tips on things to do to stay comfortable while going through this amazing place overall only thing is i suggest you make an appointment online before you go or you could be sitting there a while waiting to be seen

I have used this urgent care for myself and family numerous times and I am always extremely grateful for the excellent medical care we receive

Making an appointment means nothing. They see you when they want to. They need more staff. They are all working double time but there are not enough of them.

I had an emergency due to Allergies the staff was very fast to assist me due to my health. I would like to thank the staff for helping me as well the care they provide. Ones again Thank You

I had a wonderful experience. It’s not my first time being there the ladies are welcoming, as well fast pace, wonderful staff.
