KENDALL PARK PRIMARY CARE

My name is Dr. Ajfar Sherif, MD, and I am a board-certified Family Medicine physician in New Jersey, with additional board certification in Obesity Medicine. I specialize in medical weight loss management, helping patients achieve their health and wellness goals. I completed my medical training at Hackensack University Medical Center, and after completing my postgraduate education, I founded a Women's Health clinic focused on serving the underserved population of Paterson, NJ. In addition to my work in primary and urgent care, I have had the privilege of holding leadership positions, including serving as the Area Medical Director for MedExpress NJ and as the Chief of Urgent Care for Riverside Medical Group Urgent Care. Having cared for COVID-19 patients during the peak of the pandemic, I am now eager to return to my roots and give back to the community that shaped me.

As a board-certified family nurse practitioner, I specialize in women’s health, chronic disease management, and episodic care for minor illnesses. I’m dedicated to providing thorough diagnoses and treatment for a wide range of health conditions. I’m passionate about getting to know my patients and their families to offer personalized, compassionate care. My goal is to ensure you feel heard and supported every step of the way. Together, we'll focus on your health and well-being, and I'm here to answer any questions you may have. Outside of work, my family and I live in Princeton, where we enjoy the vibrant community. I love staying active through running and making regular trips to the Jersey Shore.

Proven ability to deliver high quality patient care by conducting thorough assessments, developing treatment plans, and performing diagnostic procedures. Strong background in patient education, emphasizing preventative care and chronic disease management.
