| 1 | Deborah Heart and Lung |
200 Trenton Rd Browns Mills, NJ 08015 |
| Deborah Heart and Lung was established in 1922 as a tuberculosis sanitarium and pulmonary center. With the development of antibiotic medications, which eradicated TB, Deborah began expanding its focus to other chest diseases. In 1958, Dr. Charles Bailey, a pioneer in heart surgery, performed the first open heart surgery at Deborah. The specialty of cardiac diseases was immediately embraced and Deborah evolved into the only cardiac and pulmonary specialty hospital in New Jersey. Today, Deborah offers the latest surgical techniques and non- surgical alternatives for diagnosing and treating all forms of cardiac, vascular and pulmonary diseases in adults, and congenital and acquired heart defects in neonates and children. |
