The Rutgers Health Pediatric Neurosurgery program helps manage pediatric neurological disorders, including trauma, developmental disorders – such as spina bifida and hydrocephalus – and tumors of the brain and spinal cord. The program offers leading-edge procedures in computer-guided and minimally invasive surgery.

Our program takes a multidisciplinary, compassionate approach to care by combining the knowledge of experts in:

Each brings life-changing knowledge from the classroom to the exam room.
