Two supplied listings connect the name The Medicentral with different New Jersey locations. A directory page places The Medicentral at 684 Mt Prospect Ave, Newark, NJ 07104, and gives the phone number +1 973-567-3992. The official website for The MediCentral instead presents a clinic at 171 S Livingston Ave, Unit 3, Livingston, NJ 07039, with the number 862-335-0060. The addresses and phone numbers do not match, so the Livingston information should not be treated as directions or contact details for the Newark listing.
The Newark directory entry and the Livingston website are not interchangeable
The directory page categorizes its Newark entry as Walk-In Urgent Care and displays a 4.5 rating based on two reviews. It also shows “See hours” rather than a specific schedule. Those are details displayed on that directory entry; the small review count does not establish the clinic’s present operating status or confirm a typical patient experience. The page also labels the property brand “Independent,” so its presentation should not be mistaken for the clinic’s own confirmation of the Newark address.
The official website gives a separate, more detailed account of the Livingston location. It describes urgent care and aesthetic services, says walk-ins are welcome, and lists weekday hours of 8 AM to 8 PM and weekend hours of 8 AM to 6 PM. It provides 862-335-0060 as its phone number. These statements are attached to the Livingston address shown on that website. They do not establish that a Newark location has the same hours, walk-in arrangements, phone number, or services.
What the listings say about services—and what they do not settle
The Newark directory entry displays a broader set of service labels, including X-ray, lab tests, stitches and wound care, COVID and flu testing, and IV fluids. It also lists walk-in welcome, online check-in, most insurance accepted, and pediatric and adult care. These are directory-listed details, not confirmation from the official website that those services or arrangements are available at 684 Mt Prospect Ave. The official website’s service descriptions belong to its Livingston presentation, which includes urgent care and aesthetic treatments.
This distinction matters when choosing where to go. A service appearing in a directory can help identify what to ask about, but it cannot resolve whether that service is available at the Newark address or whether the Newark entry refers to the same operating location described on the website. Likewise, “walk-ins welcome” on the website describes the Livingston clinic; it is not evidence of walk-in access at the Newark listing. The directory’s walk-in category is a separate listing signal, not a substitute for current, location-specific information.
Match the address to the contact information before traveling
If the intended destination is Newark, use the Newark street address and number as the details shown on that directory page, and make sure any directions point to 684 Mt Prospect Ave in Newark—not the Livingston address. The directory provides +1 973-567-3992 for its Newark entry. The official website provides 862-335-0060 for the Livingston clinic. Since the sources attach those numbers to different locations, using one number as though it serves both sites could lead to confusion.
A practical way to resolve the discrepancy is to identify the exact address first and use a contact route that can speak to that address. A response that only confirms The MediCentral operates in Livingston would not answer whether the Newark listing is current. Similarly, a directory map pin or a matching business name alone does not establish that the two addresses are connected. Look for a direct, location-specific match between the address and the clinic you plan to visit before relying on either listing for a trip.
Use location-specific details, not the rating or shared name, to decide
The Newark entry’s 4.5 rating comes from just two reviews, so it is a limited snapshot rather than evidence about current services or conditions at the address. The website’s service descriptions and posted hours offer more detail, but only for the Livingston location it identifies. Neither source by itself resolves the central question: whether The Medicentral is currently operating at the Newark address listed by the directory.
The information available supports a clear distinction, not a conclusion about the Newark clinic’s current status. One directory lists a Newark address, phone number, walk-in category, and service labels; the official website describes The MediCentral at a different address in Livingston and gives different contact details. Keeping those source-specific facts separate lets readers avoid applying the website’s Livingston hours or walk-in statement to Newark, while focusing any further location check on the particular address they intend to visit.
