Associate joins medical group

NEWTON-Mina Mohammadi, M.D., who is board certified in both pulmonary and internal medicine, has joined Pulmonary Medical Associates on High Street, managed by Rakesh K. Garg, M.D., and Daya Nadarajah, M.D. Mohammadi is a fellow of the College of Chest Physicians and is certified in advanced cardiac life support and basic life support with the American Heart Association. She completed her residency in internal medicine in 1997 at the New York Methodist Hospital, and completed a fellowship in pulmonary medicine in 1999. In 2000, she was appointed to an assistant professorship at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. "I am excited to be in Sussex County, after 8 years in New York," she said, "and hope to expand my knowledge to all the people, as I become a part of their community. I am greatly concerned about smokers, past or present, and urge them to see a pulmonologist to assess their respiratory condition." Mohammadi resides in Byram with her husband, Bijan, and their three children. The physicians at Pulmonary Medical Associates are experts in pulmonolgy care, internal medicine, critical care, and sleep apnea. Both Garg and Nadarajah agree that Mohammadi's education and expertise will complement their work, and bring to their patients the professional and specialized care they expect. At present, Garg and Nadarajah maintain separate offices, and Mohammadi divides her time between each location. In September, the offices will be combined at a new facility which is presently under construction.
