At the New Jersey Pediatric Neuroscience
Institute (NJPNI), two exceptional neurosurgeons provide exceptional clinical care in the
areas of pediatric developmental disorders,
neurological and neurosurgical diseases. They
provide expedited and accurate diagnoses,
explain surgical and non-surgical treatment
options and practice at world-class medical
institutions. They understand that childhood illness affects the entire family and that each
patient and each family are unique. The practice also provides hubs for physical therapy,
cranial orthotics, a Craniofacial Center, the
New Jersey Concussion Center, as well as a
Cerebral Palsy Center, Spina Bifida Center, and
a Pediatric Brain and Spine Tumor Center.
