Clinical Services

Waymon C. Lattimore Practice was established more than 3 decades ago and is part of Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. It is designated by the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services as a Regional TB Clinic, serving Essex and Union County. The Practice also accepts referrals statewide for patients with multi-drug resistance and complex medical management problems.

Pulmonary and infectious disease specialists provide adult and pediatric medical care. Clients are assigned to a multi-disciplinary healthcare team based on their geographic location. A Nurse Case Manager supervises each team. The members of the team are comprised of public health representatives and clinic nurses. Directly Observed Therapy (DOT) will be arranged with the client at their initial intake encounter. Clients may receive their medications at the clinic, at their home, workplace, or other designated site. HIV counseling and testing is available on site to clients of the Lattimore Practice.
