Pediatric Surgery

Multidisciplinary Surgical Care for Infants, Children & Teens

Operating on a child requires special training, skills and the utmost compassion. At Hackensack Meridian Children’s Health, our board-certified pediatric surgeons know kids. They use techniques and tools designed for little bodies that are still growing, as well as minimally invasive options to promote less pain and faster recovery.

All of our pediatric surgeons work with other members of the care team — including parents — to find the best treatment and outcome for each child. They have advanced medical training from some of the best institutions in the world and decades of experience caring for children.

From the most basic to the most complex, Hackensack Meridian Children’s Health’s diverse surgical offerings span many specialties, including:

Craniofacial surgery for conditions affecting the face and skull
