Academics
Jersey Shore serves as the academic hub of Meridian Health.
Across the country, people turn to teaching hospitals every day for specialized surgeries, life-saving care and complex treatments. Academic medical centers are where medical knowledge continuously evolves and new cures and treatments are found. They also serve as the training ground for the physicians of tomorrow.
Since earning our designation as a university-level teaching hospital affiliate of UMDNJ – Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Jersey Shore University Medical Center's commitment to academics has made us a magnet for some of the best physicians in the region.
Training the Physicians of Tomorrow
With the best physicians comes top quality training for our Resident and Fellowship Programs. Tomorrow's physicians must understand how to incorporate patients into their decision making and relate to diverse cultures.
Meridian's mission of training the next generation of health care professionals is vital to providing a foundation for sound health in our community and in the world.
