Medicine has made tremendous advances in the past decade beyond traditional pharmaceutical practices. Unfortunately, not everyone has access to the latest treatments. Not anymore. Drs. Nalin Ranasinghe and Ritesh Amin, together with Dr. Gunjan Baweja and their team, are bringing greater access to the latest treatments for a range of issues including men’s health, mental health, and weight loss at Providence Medical and Infusion Center at 571 Central Avenue, Suite 104A in New Providence.
Providence Medical and Infusion Center is the brainchild of Dr. Ranasinghe, an emergency room physician, and Dr. Amin, a psychiatrist. While practicing together in New York, they learned a lot about the latest advances in medicine, but they also discovered that most people did not have access to them. They wanted that to change.
There is a worldwide mental health crisis right now. Depression, anxiety, PTSD and mood disorders are all on the rise. Dr. Amin, as a psychiatrist, is passionate about mental health. At Providence Medical and Infusion Center, clients have access to a range of therapeutic approaches with a personalized, holistic approach to therapy in a supportive environment. There are flexible scheduling options, including evening and weekend appointments and both in-person and teletherapy sessions. The team of licensed therapists offers individualized, couples, and family therapy to address a wide range of mental health issues.
While antidepressants are often effective, patients are sometimes left with side effects such as brain fog, weight gain and/or a decreased libido. At Providence Medical and Infusion Center, they practice a noninvasive therapy called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, particularly in areas involved in mood regulation, to improve symptoms of major depression. TMS is FDA-approved for patients who have not found relief from depression through traditional treatments. It does not require anesthesia or medications and has minimal side effects. It has been proven to mitigate many of the side effects resulting from pharmaceuticals and has also provided significant relief for patients who do not respond to antidepressants.
Another innovative treatment available at Providence Medical and Infusion Center for depression, PTSD, and other mood disorders is Ketamine Therapy. Ketamine Therapy has been available for years and has proven highly effective, but it is not widely available. Ketamine is typically administered intravenously in a series of sessions over several weeks. It has offered rapid relief, particularly for patients who have not responded to other therapies and especially providing a rapid reduction in suicidal ideation.
Another area of concern to many patients is men’s health. As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline. Testosterone is a key male hormone playing a vital role in maintaining muscle mass, bone density, red blood cell levels, mood, and sexual function. At Providence Medical and Infusion Center, eligible men can receive testosterone therapy that has been found to increase muscle mass and strength, improve sexual function, reduce fat mass, enhance mood and cognitive function, increase bone density, and improve energy levels.
Providence Medical and Infusion Center also offers a multifaceted approach to weight loss. Addressing both the physiological and lifestyle factors, they integrate medication and IV infusions into weight loss therapy to enhance patient outcomes.
Finally! Our approach to weight loss, mental health, men’s health, and more does not have to be about just taking a pill. At Providence Medical and Infusion Center, they look at the whole picture and give you access to the latest medical treatments.
