The multidisciplinary team at NJ Pediatric Neuroscience Institute (NJPNI) provides collaborative, compassionate and personalized care to every child. NJPNI offers exceptional pediatric care through cutting-edge medical expertise and a highly trained staff that treats families with warmth, understanding and respect.
Improving Patients’ Quality of Life
“Watching children overcome challenges and grow stronger is the most fulfilling part of my job,” says Dr. Jeffrey Kornitzer, director of pediatric neurology at NJPNI. “Helping children regain their health and seeing their quality of life improve reminds me daily why I chose pediatric neurology as my specialty.” The providers utilize the latest technologies, including advanced neuroimaging techniques and neurodiagnostic testing, to diagnose and treat pediatric neurological conditions. They emphasize minimally invasive treatments when possible and offer innovative therapies for epilepsy, neuromuscular disorders and neurodevelopmental conditions. The team also offers telemedicine consultations.
Caring for the Whole Child
“We understand that pediatric neurology can be a stressful experience for families, so we go out of our way to create a welcoming, calm environment,” says Dr. Kornitzer, a father of four. “We strive to make every family feel comfortable and well-informed by fostering open communication.” Boardcertified in pediatric neurology, Dr. Kornitzer serves as an assistant professor at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. He has written more than a dozen peer-reviewed articles in prestigious journals. “At NJPNI, we’re not just treating a condition—we’re caring for the whole child,” he says. “Our goal is to give every child the opportunity to thrive.”
