Getting to Sage from Warren
From Warren Township, take Mount Bethel Road east, then Mountain Boulevard to Springfield Avenue. Sage is at 369 Springfield Avenue in Berkeley Heights with free on-site parking. Warren residents in the Stony Brook section can also use Reinman Road through Watchung. The drive is typically 12 to 15 minutes depending on time of day. Many Warren families choose us over driving farther for evening and weekend care.

Most of our Warren patients walk in for one of these reasons:
- Walk-in care without driving farther — closer than Somerset Medical or Robert Wood Johnson for non-emergencies

- Sports physicals ($50) and school physicals for Warren athletes
- Pediatric urgent care when Warren pediatricians are closed

- UTI, sinus, and ear infections

Warren neighborhoods and landmarks we serve
Sage sees Warren patients from across the township — the Stony Brook section, residents along Mountain Boulevard, the Mount Bethel area, and families near the Somerset border. Many of our Warren patients are families who decided their evening or weekend care experience matters more than the extra few minutes of drive time. Warren's relatively rural, large-lot character means tick bite evaluations and yard-work-related injuries are common reasons for visits.
Schools and student athletes from Warren
Warren Township students attend Watchung Hills Regional High School and Warren Middle School, plus four elementary schools — Angelo L. Tomaso, Mount Horeb, Central, and Woodland. Sage sees student athletes from all of these for NJSIAA sports physicals ($50, same-visit form sign-off) and in-season injury evaluations. We also see athletes from Pingry, Mount Saint Mary, and other private schools in the area.
Insurance for Warren residents
Sage Urgent Care accepts most major insurance plans used by Warren residents — Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield Horizon NJ, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare, and many others. Self-pay rates are available for uninsured patients: most visits run $150–$200, sports physicals are $50, DOT physicals are $90–$120. See our full accepted insurance list.
Seasonal and community health patterns for Warren patients
Warren Township is one of the more distant communities we regularly serve — about 6.2 miles, 12 to 15 minutes via Route 22. Warren has no standalone urgent care clinic within its township boundaries, which means Sage is the primary walk-in option for Warren families who need same-day care without driving to a hospital emergency department.
Watchung Hills Regional HS athletes: Warren Township students attend Watchung Hills Regional HS — the same school that serves Stirling, Gillette, and other Long Hill Township communities. We see a significant group of Warren-resident WHRHS athletes for pre-season sports physicals every August and for sports-related injuries throughout the fall and spring athletic seasons.
Tick bite and Lyme disease exposure (May–October): Warren Township is a wooded Somerset County community with substantial green space. Lyme disease exposure risk is measurably higher here than in more developed suburban communities. We assess tick bite exposure using IDSA criteria — for high-risk exposures meeting criteria for prophylaxis, we prescribe doxycycline the same visit, no follow-up needed.
DOT physicals for I-78 corridor commercial drivers: Warren Township sits adjacent to the I-78 and Route 22 corridors, with commercial vehicle traffic. CDL drivers and truckers who live in Warren or work nearby use Sage for FMCSA-certified walk-in DOT physicals — $90–$120, available 7 days, card issued same day if you pass.
After-hours coverage for Somerset County families: Warren's nearest emergency departments are Somerset Medical Center in Somerville and Overlook in Summit — both substantial drives. For non-emergency illness and injury, the 12-minute drive to Sage is the right-sized care setting and significantly less expensive than an ER visit.

Warren families: what brings you in
Warren Township is one of the wealthier and more sparsely populated communities in the area, with about 15,000 residents across 19.4 square miles. Most homes are spread along wooded lots, and the township has no traditional downtown. Warren families typically come to Sage for:
- Sports injuries from Watchung Hills Regional HS — Warren shares the Watchung Hills regional district with Long Hill, Green Brook, and Watchung. We see Watchung Hills athletes regularly during fall, winter, and spring seasons.
- Tick bites from wooded backyards — Warren's heavily wooded terrain makes tick exposure routine in warm months. We provide same-day evaluation, tick identification, and prophylactic antibiotic when indicated based on tick attachment time.
- Falls and orthopedic injuries — older Warren residents come in for evaluation after falls; we can X-ray on site to rule out fractures and provide splinting or immobilization.
- Pediatric urgent care — Warren has no walk-in pediatric clinic within the township; the nearest are in Bridgewater or Sage.
Why Sage instead of Bridgewater or Morristown
Warren residents often consider Robert Wood Johnson Somerset in Somerville (~8 miles) or Morristown Medical Center (~12 miles) for medical needs, but both are full hospitals with ER pricing and waits. For non-emergency walk-in needs, Sage is closer or comparable in distance and typically has same-day availability without an appointment.
For Watchung Hills Regional High School physicals specifically, Sage is one of the closest urgent cares with same-day physical capability for the school's required NJSIAA form. Most athletes complete their physicals in 30–45 minutes including paperwork.
Walk in any day, 8 AM to 8 PM
No appointment needed. We're at 369 Springfield Avenue in Berkeley Heights — 6.2 miles (12–15 minutes) from Warren.
