Available Surgical Treatments for Children
Our Pediatric General Surgery Program is one of only a few full-service surgical programs in New Jersey devoted exclusively to children’s care. We work closely with patients and families to prepare them for their procedure and ultimately provide seamless and comprehensive care. Our specially trained surgeons also operate on children ranging from newborns through adolescents.
All routine and relatively simple pediatric general surgery operations are performed in a congenial, same-day surgery setting. Parents are with their child most of the time, even in the recovery room.

- Appendectomy
