Special Features
Our strengths include our high faculty: resident ratio and our research activity. Our neurology department consists of multiple subspecialties and a Neuro Critical Care Unit. We are increasing our program complement to 15 residents over the next 2 years. Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital is by many measures the top hospital in New Jersey. We use only that one hospital, located a block from the Rutgers campus and less than one hour from New York City by train or car.
