LevelUp MD Urgent Care had an official ‘Welcome to Passaic” celebration on Thursday, June 22, with music, balloons and a ribbon cutting outside the front door at 700 Main Ave. People walking and shopping on the busy downtown street stopped to listen to CEO Dr. Paul Kim and Dr. Jonathan “Elly” Gamss MD FACEP, chief medical officer and medical director, talk about what LevelUp MD is bringing to the city.

“We’re trying to level up the quality of care to all individuals and communities,” said Kim. “We want to deliver the best quality care in urgent medicine.”

Gamss emphasized that LevelUp takes care of all ages and all conditions; no problem is too big or too small. “We’re on the cutting edge of urgent care and we’re accessible. Before running to a hospital emergency room and waiting for hours to be seen, come to us. We’re happy to take care of you.” Mayor Hector Lora said Passaic was excited about the presence of LevelUp in Passaic. “You have heard me say often that we have to unite Passaic and we’re going in the right direction. LevelUp is bringing quality health care at affordable prices. We thank LevelUp for their investment in our extremely diverse community. When you come through these doors you will be treated with respect, courtesy, and the highest quality of care.”
