Hackensack Meridian Health Cuts Ribbon On Hoboken Urgent Care PLUS

Team members at Urgent Care PLUS locations are trained in emergency medicine, giving patients access to advanced diagnostics and acute care – all in one convenient location.

May 29, 2025 — Hoboken, NJ — Hackensack Meridian Health, New Jersey’s largest and most comprehensive health system cut the ribbon on its Hoboken Urgent Care PLUS location, further expanding options for a wide spectrum of easily accessible health care services in an ambulatory setting, rather than within the walls of a hospital.

This is the third Urgent Care PLUS center to open, expanding access to a wide array of health care services across Bergen, Hudson, and Essex Counties. Urgent Care PLUS centers provide fast, high-quality, convenient care, giving patients an alternative to the Emergency Room or traditional urgent care. The new facilities are staffed with emergency medicine physicians and have the resources to run moderately complex diagnostic tests, as well as advanced imaging, providing a higher level of care compared to a typical urgent care.

The Hoboken Urgent Care PLUS and its extensive range of services are designed with the community in mind including a walk-in clinic, specialty care, and a state-of-the-art imaging center. If further treatment is needed, the Urgent Care PLUS is conveniently located right next door to Hackensack Meridian Medical Group multispecialty office featuring family medicine physicians along with obstetrics & gynecology, urology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, bariatric and general surgery. CT and X-Ray imaging services are also available conveniently located in Marine View Plaza just a short walk away from the PATH, ferry and NJ Transit.

“The Hackensack Meridian Urgent Care PLUS is a great addition to the Hoboken community,” said Paul Presinzano, Hoboken resident and Urgent Care PLUS patient. “I was able to get fast expert treatment just a short walk from my home. Everything is right there. I was seen in the Urgent Care, had imaging done, and was able to schedule follow ups with specialists right in the same building. The one stop shopping made for a seamless experience.”

Hackensack Meridian Urgent Care PLUS offers expanded capabilities to treat higher acuity patients of all ages including pediatrics and geriatrics, as well as the same range of services you would expect from traditional Urgent Care. With hours from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. weekdays, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. weekends and open on holidays, our care teams treat patients of all ages, 365 days a year.

"Our Urgent Care PLUS locations offer comprehensive treatment for various medical needs, providing a convenient one-stop shop for patients," explains Dr. Arthur Calise, board-certified emergency medicine physician and Medical Director of the West Orange and Hoboken locations. "We're dedicated to delivering compassionate, high-quality, and coordinated care, offering a convenient alternative to emergency departments or traditional urgent care."

Each facility is staffed by board-certified emergency medicine physicians and supported by a professional nursing and support staff with emergency and critical care experience. Urgent Care PLUS provides extensive care in a “One Stop” model, offering services including:

• CT scans
• X-rays
• On-site labs
• EKG
• Pulmonary function test
• Complex wound repair
• Cases requiring IV medication, fluids, and drips

The opening of these facilities is part of Hackensack Meridian Health’s investment in expanding access to high-quality, affordable medical care closer to home. As part of New Jersey’s largest health network, Hackensack Meridian Health has opened three Health and Wellness Centers in Paramus, Eatontown and Clark, which provide outpatient primary, specialty and urgent care to patients. Hackensack Meridian Health plans to open more Health and Wellness Centers in Clifton and Freehold in 2025, further expanding access to its award-winning care. These centers are powered by Hackensack Meridian Medical Group, which continues to grow and now includes more than 1,800 physicians and advanced providers at over 360 locations.

At Urgent Care PLUS, patients can expect to pay lower out-of-pocket copays, as compared to emergency department copays. No appointments are necessary.

The Urgent Care PLUS facilities are now open to patients, 365 days a year, at the following locations:

• Hackensack Meridian Urgent Care PLUS – Wyckoff – 327 Franklin Avenue, Wyckoff, New Jersey (Boulder Run Shopping Center – next to Stop and Shop)
