Story
Overlook Medical Center is home to Atlantic Neuroscience Institute - the area's leader in neuroscience care - which offers a broad range of advanced neurological, neurosurgical, and neurodiagnostic services. These include an Advanced Comprehensive Stroke Center, a Level IV Epilepsy Center, Atlantic Health Neuroscience Spine Center, and the Gerald J. Glasser Brain Tumor Center, where more brain tumor surgeries are performed than anywhere else in the state.
With some 15,000 surgeries performed each year at Overlook, there is a demonstrated need to increase capacity and optimize our ability to perform complex procedures within a broad range of specialties. To that end, both inpatient and outpatient surgical areas are being renovated and expanded to include additional surgery suites, with particular focus given to providing our neurosurgeons with the space and the tools they need.
Thanks to a generous donor, every dollar raised by the Junior Board will be matched 1:1, essentially doubling your gift. And another longtime supporter has offered a 3:1 match for all donations to surgical services. This means that a $100 gift, for example, actually brings in $233 to the campaign total!
