For the third year in a row, we’re thrilled to announce that Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital at Hackensack University Medical Center and K. Hovnanian Children’s Hospital at Jersey Shore University Medical Center have been ranked by U.S. News & World Report as the #1 children’s hospitals in New Jersey. We’re also honored to receive national recognition in Pediatric Cancer, Urology, Nephrology, and Neurology & Neurosurgery – the most ranked specialties ever for a New Jersey children’s hospital. It’s proof that at Hackensack Meridian Children’s Health, we’re ready with the expert, compassionate care kids need. To receive the best in pediatric care, visit HackensackMeridianHealth.org/Kids.
