Bloomfield and Essex County: Local Context

Bloomfield is one of Essex County’s largest and most established townships, bordering Nutley, Belleville, and Montclair, with a population of more than 53,000 residents. Essex County as a whole, including Newark, Montclair, West Orange, and Livingston, is one of New Jersey’s most densely populated and medically active regions, yet the county has limited dedicated outpatient MRI options compared to Bergen County.

Open MRI 17 gives Bloomfield and Essex County residents a nearby, advanced alternative for MRI, CT, ultrasound, and X-ray imaging without the wait times common at hospital-based radiology departments.

We also serve patients traveling from Clifton and Passaic County. If you’re weighing your imaging options, our guide on open MRI versus closed MRI explains the differences in comfort, accuracy, and who benefits most from each.
