Surgical Services

The most current, effective and minimally invasive surgical techniques using state-of-the-art technologies.

Experience Matters

Every patient and every procedure performed at our hospital receives the same unwavering attention to quality and safety.

No matter what age you are, surgery can be a scary thing. Knowing you are in good hands, though, can help soothe fears.

When many of us hear the words surgery and experience, we automatically think of the surgeon’s professional experience – where they trained, their level of training, and how many surgeries they perform each year. Patients of all ages can put their trust in our experienced, board-certified surgeons and anesthesiologists, and specially-trained nurses, knowing that they successfully complete more than 12,000 diverse procedures each year and improve the quality of life of our patients.

With You Every Step Of The Way

It is also important to think about your own experience. While successful surgery is not possible without an experienced clinical team, it is often the small touches that make any experience pleasant, and that includes your hospital experience.

We understand the importance of knowledge and comfort in a patient’s surgical experience. Hackensack Meridian emphasizes educating all patients both pre-operatively and post-operatively about what they can expect throughout their procedure, post-surgery, and proper care after returning home.

All of our patients are educated about their surgery, admitted, and discharged by a registered nurse. We believe that one-on-one nurse support makes a difference by affording our patients greater peace of mind and contributing to their successful outcomes.

Environment, communication, stellar service, and connection to loved ones all play a role in the healing process, and at Hackensack Meridian, we believe your only focus should be on getting better.

Our surgeons have extensive training.

We successfully complete over 12,000 diverse procedures each year and you can be assured that we are always dedicated to providing the highest-quality care.
