Goryeb Children’s Hospital – The Center of Pediatric Care

Goryeb Children’s Hospital at Morristown Medical Center is a designated “Children’s Hospital” – an earned recognition from New Jersey and the national Children’s Hospital Association. As such, we serve as the hub of pediatric care at Atlantic Health System and are equipped to handle just about any child’s medical need. Our hospital has a 15-bed pediatric intensive care unit, a dedicated pediatric emergency department, a Valerie Fund Children’s Center for pediatric hematology and oncology and much more.

In addition, Hersh Children’s Center at Overlook Medical Center and the Children’s Center at Chilton Medical Center bring expert pediatric emergency and overnight hospital care together into their dedicated family-friendly spaces for patients and their families.


“During my visits to Goryeb, they don’t dwell on the fact that you’re sick. They focus on how to make your life have the most potential, whatever is best for you. They treat you like a regular kid.”
