For the past 2,000 years, acupuncture has been successfully used in Eastern medicine to treat a variety of conditions. More recently, Western medical providers have come to recognize the benefits of acupuncture as an effective treatment option for many conditions. It can be used alone or in concert with other medical practices to prevent and promote emotional and physical wellness.
Medical acupuncture promotes your body’s natural healing process. With the insertion of fine needles and the application of electrical stimulation at precise points, acupuncture stimulates your body to release special hormones that relieve pain, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and increase your sense of well-being. In the hands of a well-trained physician, medical acupuncture can be used to promote wellness, improve energy, prevent illness, and treat various medical conditions.
If you need immediate care for any mild illness you may be experiencing, Vanguard Medical Group offers acute care services to the New Jersey area so you can get the treatment you need. With trusted service and a patient-centered philosophy, we aim to provide a friendly and reliable environment, so our patients can feel good about the care they’re receiving. Learn more about our services at Vanguard Medical Group.
At Vanguard Medical Group, we understand that addressing your medical needs can’t just happen between the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm. That’s why we offer extended hours at most of our locations, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends. With quick service and a trusted environment, you’re sure to get the care you deserve when you utilize our after-hours services.

Do you need help with your allergies? Are you sniffly, stuffy, itchy or experiencing something more severe? If so, Vanguard Medical Group offers an array of options with treatment from a professional allergist. From food allergies to environmental irritants, we’re able to help eliminate your symptoms so you can enjoy a better quality of life.
Allergies come from multiple sources, and their symptoms can range in intensity from minor to severe or even life-threatening. Our experienced allergist can help address any of the following allergies:
To pinpoint your allergies, allergy testing may be completed. Our allergist is trained to administer and analyze these tests to determine proper action moving forward. Through a combination of skin and blood tests, your doctor can determine which allergens are triggering symptoms. Once these allergens are better understood, steps can be taken to reduce symptoms and achieve better well-being.
Symptoms of allergies occur when our immune system overreacts to allergens, causing things like excessive sneezing, watery eyes, nasal and sinus congestion, and more. Allergy testing is used to determine what exactly you are allergic to so you can start to feel relief from those symptoms. Performed by a trained allergist, our allergy testing services can diagnose a variety of conditions such as:
Living with allergies can seriously impact your daily life, causing you to miss out on important things like work, school, and social activities. Take control of your health when you receive an allergy test at Vanguard Medical Group today. With 24/7 access to resources such as our Patient Portal, you can feel confident that you are getting the care you need.
Some people feel anxious on a daily basis and may benefit from professional help to restore balance and quality of life. At Vanguard Medical Group, we we believe that optimal health means nurturing both the body and the mind. Our medical and mental health providers aim to give you the comprehensive, individualized care necessary to help you achieve better well-being and overall health.
Anxiety treatment begins when you reach out to one of our professionals at Vanguard. From there, our team will treat your condition seriously with confidentiality and respect, listening to your concerns from the beginning. Your medical provider may refer you to one of our behavioral health specialists, who will record your family and medical history to create a clear picture of any underlying concerns. You can expect a comprehensive evaluation of any other conditions that may be affecting your overall mental health and anxiety level. Our team includes nurse practitioners with specialized master’s degrees in mental health as well as psychiatric nursing, meaning your care will be thorough, reliable and well-informed.
At Vanguard Medical Group, we believe that mental health services help to support each patient’s overall health and wellbeing. That’s why we are proud to offer behavioral health services to patients throughout New Jersey. With extensive experience and training, our team is able to diagnose and treat many behavioral health issues in patients over the age of 18. Because we use a Collaborative Care model, you must be an established Vanguard patient to participate in our behavioral health program.
Behavioral health is the area of medicine that focuses on how cognitive habits and behaviors interact with and affect one’s overall wellbeing, including their emotional, spiritual, and physical health. Sometimes called mental health, behavioral health is a vital component of primary care, as studies show a clear link between mental disorders and chronic medical conditions. For instance, research has shown that individuals with diabetes, heart disease, or another chronic illness are more likely to develop depression or another behavioral health condition. Likewise, those suffering from untreated depression are more likely to develop a chronic disease.
As a primary care provider with behavioral health specialists on staff, Vanguard Medical Group offers behavioral health services that highlight our commitment to treat the whole person, as the connection between physical and mental health is a strong one. Examples of the behavioral health conditions and disorders we treat include the following:

We’re all involved with activities that put us at risk for concussions. Whether it’s through sports, work, or any other engagement, it’s important to get the proper care if you ever do experience a concussion. If it is not an emergency situation, Vanguard Medical Group is here to help you get the treatment you need with 24/7 access to our Patient Portal. Learn more about our comprehensive concussion management services, including treating sports-related concussions, in the New Jersey area at Vanguard Medical Group.
Concussions are a form of mild traumatic brain injuries caused by blunt force to the head or upper body, as well as sudden, jolting motions. When these rough movements occur, your brain will shake and bounce, making contact with your skull. This will result in trauma to your brain, setting off a variety of symptoms that could indicate that you have a concussion. Concussions can affect multiple systems in the body including vision, balance, mood, sleep, concentration and memory. They can alter how your brain functions, so getting the appropriate treatment can decrease your chances of experiencing long-term symptoms.
In some cases, a concussion requires immediate, emergency treatment. Look for these “red flag” symptoms:
In these cases, head to the emergency room immediately for diagnosis and treatment.
Women have access to several types of contraception, and a patient’s needs may change over time. Find the best form of birth control for your sexual health and overall wellbeing in partnership with a women’s health specialist at Vanguard Medical Group. Serving patients in several locations throughout New Jersey, we offer contraceptive care as part of our comprehensive women’s health services. Let us help you navigate the different types of birth control options available.
Women’s contraception comes in several forms and can serve many purposes. Many sexually active women seek contraception to help prevent unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). However, other patients may be prescribed a form of hormonal birth control to help alleviate or prevent specific health issues, such as:
At Vanguard Medical Group, the overall wellbeing of each patient is important to us. We recognize that each patient has unique needs and not every form of contraception works for every woman. Our women’s health specialists help patients find contraceptives that best suit their needs, whether it’s to prevent unintended pregnancies or alleviate a condition. The type of contraception recommended may depend on several factors, such as:
The effectiveness of birth control varies and some patients may need to try a few different methods before arriving at the best and most comfortable choice for their lifestyle. Discussing your personal and family planning needs with a physician is the first step to finding the best contraception for you.
Treatments with Botox® and dermal fillers such as Juvederm® are performed in the office and require no down time. Clients can go home or back to work and no one will know that you’ve had a procedure, although they may comment that you look refreshed or younger in some way.
There are a variety of dermal fillers available today. They can be used to reduce wrinkles and add volume. In the example below, Dr. Carrazzone helps a patient achieve her desire for fuller, more symmetrical lips using Juvederm.
Depression is more than simply feeling sad. This condition affects people of all genders, ages, and ethnicities, and an estimated 322 million people live with depression around the world. When left untreated, it can lead to problems within the family, at work or school, and in your social life. If you’re coping with the symptoms of depression, Vanguard Medical Group offers depression counseling and services to promote healing and improve your quality of life. Learn more about how we serve individuals with depression, and contact your nearest location to schedule an appointment today.
By definition, depression involves negative feelings and thoughts that consume a person’s mind and disrupt one’s daily routine. Eventually, it may even take a toll on physical health if left untreated. This is because depression alters the brain’s chemistry, making it more difficult to receive the help needed when it’s needed most.
Accordingly, it’s important to address the signs and symptoms of depression as early as possible. If you or a loved one is suffering from depression, you may be experiencing some of its most common symptoms, such as:
If you’ve noticed any of these symptoms, don’t delay in scheduling a screening at your nearest Vanguard Medical Group location. The longer you wait to receive depression counseling and treatment, the more severe the disease’s impacts will become.

Learn more about our gynecology services in the New Jersey area at Vanguard Medical Group.
Gynecology is a medical field that focuses on the health of the female reproductive system. At Vanguard Medical Group, many of our Family Medicine providers include office gynecology in their practice. This means they are able to take care of routine gynecologic check-ups, including pap smears and breast exams, as well as the evaluation of symptoms/concerns involving the reproductive system. Examples of reproductive health issues you can discuss with your Family Doctor are:
When a pelvic examination is needed, your Family Doctor may use a tool called a speculum to examine your cervix and vagina. During a pelvic exam, the doctor can also evaluate your ovaries and uterus. Our Family Physicians are here to help you understand your body, healthy sexual practices, pregnancy, and openly discuss any questions you have regarding your reproductive and sexual health.
Health screenings are used to look for diseases before a patient experiences symptoms and are imperative for maintaining the health of patients.

Vanguard works with the hospital to make sure your health information is available to support your care in the hospital. We track your stay, so we can be aware when you are ready to be discharged home or to another facility for any additional needed therapy.

Getting immunized is one of the best ways to protect yourself and others from potentially harmful diseases that may lead to hospitalization or even death. There are 17 dangerous or deadly diseases that vaccines protect against, and these immunizations have prevented millions of cases and saved countless lives.
Different age groups require different vaccinations, and some people may need additional vaccines depending on their location, job, travel schedule, health conditions, or other factors. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends the following immunizations for patients:
Talk with your doctor at Vanguard Medical Group to make sure you and your family are current with vaccinations and to schedule your next vaccine.
At Vanguard, we consider all factors that influence health, wellness and disease. That’s why we not only deliver state-of-the-art medical care, based on a deep understanding of medical science, but we also provide alternative therapies and self-care strategies to promote the body’s own healing process. “Integrative medicine” is the term used to describe this blend of conventional and alternative therapies.

These therapies help in the management of stress and anxiety in addition to promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Importantly, we work together with you on a comprehensive health and wellness program that encourages self-exploration and self-development.

Menopause, commonly known as “the change of life”, is a normal process that women experience as they stop ovulating and menstruating and their reproductive period comes to an end. Because no two women experience menopause in the same way and some medical conditions can present with symptoms that can be confused with menopause, it’s important to discuss your experience with your doctor. Your doctor can guide you on how to best manage the symptoms that may come with your menopause. Vanguard Medical Group has outlined some common symptoms and complications of menopause so you can be well versed on what is normal and when to call your doctor.

Bringing a child into the world can be one of the most joyous and momentous occasions of a mother’s life. But in the weeks and months after your child’s birth, why are you feeling so depressed? The truth is that you’re not alone. You could be experiencing a condition called postpartum depression, and many women will experience it in their lifetime. If you notice symptoms of depression after the birth of your child, it’s important to know that you’re not alone and help is available. At Vanguard Medical Group, our doctors offer postpartum depression assessment and treatment, including referrals for counseling.
Postpartum depression is a mood disorder that develops after some women give birth due to emotional, hormonal, and physical factors. It’s often confused with the “baby blues,” which make new moms feel fatigued, worried, or unhappy. However, these so-called blues last up to several weeks and typically go away without the need for treatment. The symptoms of postpartum depression are more severe and often require additional support to resolve. After giving birth, estrogen and progesterone levels decrease drastically. For some, the consequent chemical changes within the brain trigger postpartum depression. Women suffering from this condition experience numerous symptoms that make everyday tasks more difficult. These symptoms include:
If you notice any of these symptoms, speak with your doctor right away. While some women feel guilt about postpartum depression, you should know that it’s not your fault, and asking for help is the best thing to do.
If your plans for the future involve becoming a parent, consider pre-conception counseling in partnership with a healthcare professional. Receiving counseling well before you receive a positive test can better prepare you for pregnancy and help ensure the health of you and your baby. At Vanguard Medical Group, we offer pre-conception counseling to patients throughout New Jersey as part of our comprehensive women’s health services.
It’s important to ensure your body is ready to become pregnant and pre-conception counseling helps you prepare for a healthy pregnancy ahead of time. Several milestones in fetal development occur within the first few weeks of pregnancy, so early pre-pregnancy support and monitoring can play a key role in the health of you and your baby.
During an appointment, patients have the opportunity to discuss various health concerns with our women’s health specialists, including:
Your appointment may also include a physical examination and laboratory tests to check for different conditions. Your physician can teach you how to chart your menstrual cycle and pinpoint when you typically ovulate each month to help ensure the best chances of conception.
Everyone is unique in their own way, and not every medication works the same for most people. At Vanguard Medical Group, we understand that best.

Beyond state-of-the-art healthcare for geriatric patients and those who are home-bound or chronically ill, we help with safety and financial concerns, wellness, paperwork and referrals.

Many schools, extracurricular activities, and sports programs require physical exams before the academic year begins or before a sports season begins. While they’re often needed for participation, the physical is also a great opportunity to get valuable medical feedback on your child’s health and growth. Vanguard Medical Group offers school physicals to children and teens throughout New Jersey to ensure they start the year in good health and receive the proper treatment for any conditions they may have.
Before this important annual visit begins, our friendly intake team will assist you with filling out your paperwork and updating your records. Then, a certified clinician will evaluate your child’s health and assess a wide variety of factors, including:
Aside from the routine checkup, the doctor may also ask children about things like study habits, school friends, problems with bullying, eating habits, and other aspects of your child’s daily life. They will then compare their results to previous evaluations to see how your child has developed over time. The clinician will also ensure all your child’s vaccinations are current and can arrange to renew them if necessary.
The next time that you need a specialist, ask us. As a Vanguard patient, we know you—and we know the high-quality specialists. That’s why Vanguard is uniquely qualified to match you with the right one.
