Looking for NJH Physician Recommendations

Sue I am curious. Is the clinic you go to associated with a University Medical Facility, like a teaching hospital of a University? With all you explained I can see why it is so encouraging So many facilities and hospitals not related to a University are being bought out and going to private equity companies.

No, mine is a large non-profit that started 50 years ago as a physician-owned and operated HMO doing primary care OB/Gyn and dentistry. It has since expanded to cover nearly all specialties, is affiliated with a hospital group, and even offers health insurance plans (I do not have theirs anymore.) They are also a teaching clinic - many of their practitioners are preceptors to new practitioners and students.
As of January first, we have been their patients for 50 years, though we see outside specialists when indicated.
