On Friday June 12, the Riverside Medical Group celebrated the grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony of their 25th office at 935 River Rd., Suite 301, in Edgewater.
Riverside Medical Group opened its first location 33 years ago. What began as a pediatric practice, operated by Dr. Azzam Baker, CEO and president, has grown into 25 offices, several offering both adult medicine and pediatric care, as the new Edgewater office will.
Riverside Medical Group truly believes in caring for patients as a whole and standing by their motto “Where your family is our family.” Their staff, Board-Certified physicians, state-of-the art facilities, and easy accessibility make Riverside Medical Group the first choice in primary care for the entire family.
The practice is committed to providing excellent care from exceptional physicians and medical staff, and to offering extraordinary convenience.
Omar Baker, M.D., F.A.A.P., Riverside’s Director of Clinical Practices & Quality Control, says: “People have enough stress in their daily lives, so one of our goals is to remove the stress that’s often associated with obtaining medical care. We have extended hours six days a week; we also accept virtually every major insurance plan, and we have state-of-the-art laboratories and testing capabilities right in our offices. All of which enables us to be a ‘Medical Home’ to our patients, where we can take a more active role in managing their care.”
Attendees included the president and CEO of Palisades Medical Center, Bruce J. Markowitz, who said Riverside Medical Group will provide “Top-quality care in this community for many years to come.”
Other Attendees included the president and CEO of Hackensack University Health Network, Robert C. Garrett, as well as The Honorable Mayor of the City of Edgewater, Michael McPartland.
Riverside offers the most convenient hours because they understand that not all of their patients fall sick during regular business hours. Hours for the Edgewater location are Mon-Fri 8 a.m.-7 p.m., Sat. 8 a.m.-2 p.m.
To schedule an appointment, Adult Medicine (201) 699-0448, Pediatrics (201) 917-3313.
