About Dr. Turner
A physician who treats the patient, not the chart.
Dr. James Turner earned his medical degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey and completed his residency in Internal Medicine. With over two decades of clinical experience, he has built a practice rooted in one conviction: that the most effective medicine begins with a genuine conversation.
Based in Clifton since 2003, Dr. Turner provides continuous, comprehensive care for adults — from preventive screenings and chronic disease management to acute illness and health optimization. He believes that a strong physician-patient relationship is the foundation of lasting wellness.
