Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Birth Defects Center
The Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Birth Defects Center at the St. Joseph's Children Hospital located at St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center in Paterson NJ illustrates their excellence of care model. The center organizes both disease specific clinics and medical care for children and adults with complex medical conditions.
The pediatric orthopedic clinic at St. Joseph's is now seeing up to 60 children a week. We've fostered a lot of new referrals from physicians and institutions that we never have before. This is with every passing year creating more of a strain on the time and resources available within the institution. The level of involvement in pediatrics is very different than you would see in traditional medicine, we are trying to correct things that take a lifetime to resolve. The Palestroni Center was developed in 2007 through the generosity of the Alfiero & Lucia Palestroni Foundation.
