Endocrinology
A recently published report states that one in three Americans born will develop diabetes during his or her lifetime. Even more disturbing, the number of individuals diagnosed with diabetes have increased by 61 percent since 1991, and this is projected to double by 2050. Jersey City has a large population of patients with diabetes and Jersey City Medial Center is committed to providing excellence in care to all its population.
