Job Description
Who we are We are a medical testing facility that specializes in comprehensive cardiovascular and pulmonary medical evaluations for first responders throughout New Jersey. Our practice was built out of the Captain Buscio Program, a foundation created by Donna Buscio after her husband, Captain Dominick Buscio of the Jersey City Fire Department, unexpectedly passed away at 39 from a heart attack. Our cardiovascular and pulmonary tests help current and retired members of the police force, state troopers, firefighters, and EMTs to be aware of their cardiovascular health and help to identify any health concerns. Employers do not mandate our tests, and the results do not affect our patients' employment. Currently, we have six different locations across New Jersey and have hopes to open more soon.
