Comprehensive Healthcare Services We Offer

AZZ Medical Associates in Belleville provides a full range of outpatient healthcare services built around continuity of care rather than one-off visits. Every service connects to the next: an annual wellness visit sets your screening schedule, screenings shape your care plan, and each follow-up reviews how that plan is actually working rather than starting over each time. Because this location has particular depth in internal medicine and infectious disease evaluation, patients dealing with a complex or unresolved illness have somewhere to turn beyond a standard urgent care visit.

Our Medical Specialties in Belleville

Our providers in Belleville take time to understand each patient’s health history, current concerns, and daily circumstances before recommending any course of care. That matters most for patients managing several conditions at once, recovering from a stubborn infection that has not responded to prior treatment, or coordinating care across multiple specialists.

With board-certified expertise in both internal medicine and infectious diseases, our Belleville clinic is positioned to evaluate the conditions that other primary care settings often refer out: recurring infections, fevers of unclear origin, post-viral symptoms, complicated urinary tract infections, and the everyday management of hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, and thyroid disorders.

Our Healthcare Providers

AZZ Medical Associates in Belleville is pleased to welcome Dr. Richard Go, a board-certified physician with extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of internal medicine and infectious diseases.

Because the same provider follows your visits over time, he notices what a single appointment cannot show: a lab trend moving in the wrong direction, an infection that keeps returning in a pattern, or a chronic condition that needs a different approach than the one that worked last year. That continuity, one provider tracking your full history, is the quiet advantage of a medical home over a different clinic every time something comes up.

Insurance Coverage

We accept all major insurance plans, including Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid. If you have any questions about your coverage, call 609-890-1050 and our human support team will explain your benefits clearly before your visit. 

This includes NJ FamilyCare, which covers many Essex County families at low or no cost, and the commercial plans most Belleville residents carry. Many preventive services including annual wellness visits and recommended screenings carry no out-of-pocket cost under most New Jersey plans. Our front desk verifies your specific benefits before you arrive so cost is never a barrier to the care you need. You can review the insurance plans we support or call 609-890-1050 to confirm participation with your specific plan.

Yes. AZZ Medical Associates at 727 Joralemon Street is currently accepting new patients with Dr. Richard Go, a board-certified physician with extensive experience in internal medicine and infectious diseases.

Finding a primary care provider with real availability has become genuinely difficult across Essex County, and Belleville residents often end up traveling into Newark, Nutley, or Bloomfield for an appointment that should be reachable within the township. Our Joralemon Street office does not operate on a waitlist model.

The process starts with one call. Our staff verify your insurance, confirm your appointment type, and coordinate any records transfer from a previous provider before your first visit. Call 609-890-1050 to book an appointment, and most new patients can be seen within 24 hours.

Dr. Go's board certification in both internal medicine and infectious diseases means our Joralemon Street location can evaluate conditions that many primary care offices routinely refer elsewhere: recurring or unexplained infections, fevers that persist without a clear cause, complicated urinary tract infections, and post-viral symptoms that linger longer than expected.

This matters because these presentations often get bounced between urgent care, an emergency room, and a primary care office without anyone taking ownership of the underlying pattern. Having infectious disease training within a primary care setting means the same provider can investigate an unresolved infection and manage your everyday chronic conditions in one connected visit, rather than referring you out and losing continuity.

If you have been dealing with a recurring infection that previous providers could not fully explain, this is the type of case this location is specifically equipped to take on. Call 609-890-1050 to schedule an evaluation.

Our clinic is at 727 Joralemon Street, close to Belleville's downtown corridor along Washington Avenue. From Nutley, the drive is a short, direct trip across the Belleville-Nutley border near Silver Lake. From Bloomfield, most patients arrive via Belleville Avenue or through the township center without needing the Parkway. For patients coming from Newark's North Ward or Kearny, the office is reachable via local roads without requiring highway travel, which matters for anyone without a car or relying on a ride from family. NJ Transit bus service runs through Belleville center, and the Watsessing Avenue and Bloomfield stations on the Montclair-Boonton rail line sit a short distance away for patients arriving by train. If you are unsure of the best route from your specific neighborhood, call 609-890-1050 and our staff will give you exact directions.

Yes, and this is one of the more specialized services this particular AZZ Medical location offers compared to a standard family practice. Dr. Go's infectious disease background means recurring infections, fevers that do not resolve with standard treatment, and unusual post-illness symptoms can be properly investigated rather than treated only symptomatically.

Evaluation typically starts with a detailed history of when symptoms began, how they have progressed, what treatments have already been tried, and any travel, exposure, or occupational risk factors that might be relevant. From there, targeted lab work or imaging may be ordered to narrow down the cause rather than repeating the same broad workup that may have already been done elsewhere.

If a case requires a specialist beyond what internal medicine and infectious disease evaluation can resolve, the referral is arranged directly and results return to your Belleville medical record. Call 609-890-1050 to schedule an evaluation for a persistent or recurring infection.

Yes. We accept NJ FamilyCare, Medicaid, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and all major commercial insurance plans at our Joralemon Street location.

NJ FamilyCare covers a significant number of Belleville and Essex County families, and many patients are unsure whether their specific plan is accepted before they call, which sometimes delays them from booking care they are actually entitled to at low or no cost. Our front desk verifies your specific plan and any copay before your appointment rather than after.

If you are unsure of your current coverage status, or your insurance has recently changed, call 609-890-1050 with whatever information you have and our staff will help you sort out what applies.

Same-day and walk-in appointments are available at our Belleville clinic when the schedule allows. Calling 609-890-1050 ahead of time gives our team the best opportunity to fit you in or, if the in-person schedule is full, to offer a same-day telehealth appointment instead.

This matters particularly for the kinds of concerns this location specializes in: a fever that has lingered for several days, a suspected infection that is worsening, or symptoms severe enough to worry about but not clearly requiring an emergency room. Using a same-day primary care visit for these situations is generally faster and considerably less expensive than an ER visit for the same concern.

If your symptoms include high fever, difficulty breathing, confusion, or other signs that may indicate a medical emergency, go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 rather than waiting for a same-day appointment.

Dr. Go provides ongoing management for the chronic conditions that make up the bulk of adult primary care: hypertension, type 2 diabetes and prediabetes, high cholesterol, and thyroid disorders, tracked consistently over time rather than addressed only when something flares up.

Because he sees the same patients across multiple visits, blood pressure trends, A1C results, and lipid panels are reviewed in context rather than in isolation, which allows early adjustment before a condition worsens into a bigger problem. Every visit also includes a review of your complete medication list, including over-the-counter products and supplements, since interactions between medications from different prescribers are a common and often missed source of side effects.

If you are managing a chronic condition and want a provider who tracks your history closely rather than starting fresh each visit, call 609-890-1050 to establish or transfer your care.

Yes. The Joralemon Street office offers wheelchair-accessible entry along with on-site parking, which matters given that many older buildings in Belleville's downtown corridor were not built with accessible entrances.

If you have specific mobility needs, whether that involves a wheelchair, a walker, or assistance getting into the building, call 609-890-1050 ahead of your appointment and our staff will confirm the arrangements in advance rather than leaving you to figure it out on arrival. Patients arriving with a family member or caregiver for support are always welcome.

For patients coming from Silver Lake or the Belleville-Nutley border area on foot, the office is also positioned within reasonable walking distance of the surrounding residential blocks.

Yes, and a meaningful share of appointments at our Belleville location are arranged this way, often by an adult child coordinating care for a parent managing multiple chronic conditions.

When you call 609-890-1050, our staff can help you gather what the visit needs: the medication list, pharmacy details, insurance information, and any prior records. With the patient's permission, you are welcome to attend the appointment itself, which is genuinely useful since a second listener catches details that get lost between the exam room and the ride home.

Privacy rules still apply for adult patients, meaning we need their agreement before discussing clinical information with you directly, and our staff will explain exactly how that consent process works when you call.

Yes. HIPAA-compliant telehealth is available for follow-ups, medication reviews, chronic condition check-ins, and many routine concerns that do not require a physical exam or lab draw.

For patients balancing work schedules or transportation challenges across Essex County, a video appointment often makes the difference between keeping a follow-up visit and letting it slip. New Jersey law requires most health plans to reimburse telehealth at the same rate as an in-person visit, so choosing video typically does not cost you more.

Some situations genuinely require an in-person visit, particularly initial evaluations for a recurring infection or anything requiring bloodwork drawn on site. Your provider will tell you honestly which format fits your specific concern rather than defaulting to whichever is easier to schedule.
