My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I have been a physician specializing in internal medicine and primary care for over 20 years. My approach to your care begins with creating and maintaining an environment of comfort, caring, trust and individualized service.
When my patients are at the office, they are the focus of my attention with no interruption, delay or time constraints. The commitment to your health and wellness cannot be rushed. My smaller practice affords my staff and me the time to provide advanced screenings and tests to help identify risk factors and diagnosis and treat issues as early and effectively as possible. We also can focus on planning, prevention and comprehensive coordination of your care. My affiliation with MDVIP has helped me to achieve and improve upon these goals and principles with particular emphasis on cardiac care, bone health, respiratory care, diabetes, fitness, nutrition and more. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time.
Our new state-of-the-art building and facility were designed with overall patient comfort and care in mind. My two long-time nurses, Amy and Lisa, have established personal relationships with each patient, allowing for the highest level of attention and follow-up care.
Having grown up in Westfield, New Jersey, I am an active member of this close-knit community and am proud of my family’s interest and involvement within the community as well. Located in the heart of Westfield, my personalized healthcare practice serves many surrounding areas of Union County and beyond. I am on staff at Overlook Hospital in Summit.
In 2014, I successfully passed my third American Board of Internal Medicine exam. The completion of this rigorous exam underscores my desire as an internist to stay highly trained and abreast of the most current diagnostic and therapeutic modalities in the field of internal medicine.
Although I maintain a small and intimate practice, I am always interested in meeting potential patients who share the same goals for their health.

Just a few weeks ago, on the anniversary of my husband's sudden death, I received a text from my physician and his staff sharing with me that he and his staff fondly remembered the "Big Guy." It was so heartwarming to hear and with tears rolling down my cheeks, I texted them a heartfelt thank you.

With Dr Joe, every moment matters most. He is a problem solver and has stepped up whenever needed, no matter how swamped or on vacation or otherwise. Among professionals I’ve encountered, he is in rarefied air.

I cannot pick one example of how Dr. DeRosa has changed my life with one experience. I have been a patient of Dr.DeRosa for close to or more than twenty years. He knows me very well and has pointed out things I can do to improve my health and well being. What I like about Dr. DeRosa is that he looks for and tests me for things that I might not be aware of, but could in the future cause… See more

I am thankful for Dr DeRosa, and his team, Lisa and Amy. His office environment is the warmest, most welcoming and supportive place there is. Dr. DeRosa has helped me through some challenging situations during COVID and provided medical guidance in other family emergency situations. It is calming to know I have a support system always there to take my call when I need it most.

Dr. DeRosa is a great Doctor. He cares about the individual and complements that care with the proper diagnosis and remedies. One never waits in the waiting room, his service is cordial, warm and friendly. The patient is the main focus and is never rushed. He asks questions and listens when one responds. In emergencies, he is always there if not in person, then by phone. I highly recommend him… See more

On a Sunday before New Year's I returned home after an out of town visit with a constant cough and overall malaise. I knew no doctor would be available, didn't want to call Dr. DeRosa's home, but was concerned that I might be seriously ill. I finally decided to call the office, hoping that perhaps my message might eventually reach the doctor. To my surprise, Dr. DeRosa… See more

John and I are so pleased to be patients of Dr. DeRosa. As senior citizens, it is so reassuring to know that Dr, DeRosa is there for us 24/7 and that we are not just names and ID’s.
He is always available for appointments, to speak to, to text and to email. He is genuinely interested and concerned about our health and well-being.
Recently, Amy called to ask how we were. Dr.… See more
