"To improve the quality of life for all those
we touch through excellence in patient care, education,
research and community service." - Our Mission
As the core teaching facility of the UMDNJ-New Jersey
Medical School, The University Hospital is the center
of referral for many of the state’s most advanced
medical services and specialty care programs. Our commitment
to education, primary care and specialized referral
services has produced the most extensive array of inpatient
and outpatient services available in the state of New
Jersey.
The University Hospital offers a wide range of specialty
services including northern New Jersey’s only
Level 1 Trauma Center (incorporating a trauma-intensive
care unit and the NorthSTAR helicopter emergency and
critical care transport system), a regional center for
neonatal intensive care, the Acute Stroke Center, the
New Jersey Cardiovascular Institute (NJCI), the Cochlear
Implant Program, a neurosurgical intensive care unit
and a special Brain Tumor Program, the Neurological
Institute of New Jersey, a federally designated spinal
cord injury program, The University Center for Bloodless
Surgery and Medicine, and New Jersey’s first Liver
Transplant Program.
The hospital is staffed by 300 full-time attending
physicians who are also faculty members of the New Jersey
Medical School. The University Hospital has more than
19,000 admissions, 2,700 births, and 215,000 outpatient
visits annually.
For the convenience of its patients, many of the hospital's
outpatient services are delivered in the adjacent Doctors
Office Center (DOC). This eight level medical office
complex combines university-level expertise and resources
with the comfort and convenience of a private practice
environment.
