Mission and Vision Statement

We Care

Our research organization was founded on the principle of advancing medical care for patients who struggle with disease.

Our clinical research studies provide a way for patients to receive treatment and education about their disease in a very cost effective way. There is no cost to participate and all product and testing is provided by the sponsor company. Patient participants have access to newest drugs and devices available when they contribute in a clinical study.

Clinical Care & Safety

For any new drug or device to be approved for sale by the FDA, there must be extensive testing. This testing is done in many phases.

At West Orange Endocrinology Research Department, we only focus on clinical trials where all safety phases have been completed so that there is minimal risk to patients.

Our clinical studies show how effective a new product performs compared to a gold standard or similar treatment.
