Since 1865, Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center (CBMC), New Jersey’s oldest non-profit, nonsectarian hospital, has worked to exceed our community’s highest expectations for compassionate care, health care excellence and superior service. Our commitment to excellence is illustrated by our numerous designations from national organizations. As New Jersey’s only certified burn center, CBMC draws adult and pediatric patients from all over the state. The Renal and Pancreas Transplant Division is the 5th largest kidney transplant program in the nation. The critically acclaimed Regional Perinatal Center provides care for the smallest high-risk and critically ill infants in New Jersey’s leading Level III, 56-bed Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Our Heart Centers offer a comprehensive array of cardiac services and procedures including Open Heart Surgery and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements. The Cancer Center at CBMC — a clinical partner of Rutgers Cancer Institute — offers a coordinated program including Medical, Surgical and Radiation Oncology with the expertise and compassion to treat a wide

range of cancers and disease sites. For those with disorders of the chest, our thoracic surgery team provides the most appropriate minimally invasive surgical techniques. The majority of patients have video-assisted thoracoscopic, laparoscopic or robotic surgeries to minimize blood loss and reduce postoperative pain, resulting in shorter hospital stays and a faster recovery to daily activities. The Breast Center at the Ambulatory Care Center — one of the nation’s largest and most comprehensive breast diagnostic centers — performs close to 50,000 procedures annually with coordinated care and patient navigation to the medical and surgical expertise and services available through CBMC. The Breast Center now has a dedicated MRI enhancing the continuum of care for patients.

CBMC is accredited by The Joint Commission and the American Medical Association Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. The medical center is a major teaching affiliate of Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.

Our dedication to serving the people of New Jersey extends far beyond the care we provide within our hospital walls.
