  • Collaborative team of three colorectal surgeons with dedicated APP support.
  • Advanced surgical technology and services, including five da Vinci robotic surgical systems, with a state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery center. 
  • Shared 1:4 colorectal surgery call covering Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center and Jersey City Medical Center.
  • Rutgers faculty appointment with opportunities to educate surgical residents, physician assistants, and Rutgers students.
  • Opportunities to grow specialized services in colonoscopy, benign anorectal conditions, and pelvic floor disorders.

Candidate Requirements:

  • Board certification in both Colon and Rectal Surgery and General Surgery.
  • Three to five years of practice experience preferred.
