Neurosurgeons of New Jersey celebrates 30 years of excellence in patient care and innovation. This year marks a milestone for Neurosurgeons of New Jersey as the practice celebrates three decades of providing exceptional care to patients, hospitals, and communities across the state. Founded in 1995 by Jonathan Lustgarten, MD, FAANS, who also served as Chief of Neurosurgery at Monmouth Medical Center, the practice has grown from a small team to the state’s premier neurosurgical group, recognized for clinical excellence and innovation.

Over the years, Neurosurgeons of New Jersey has recruited top neurosurgeons from elite programs across the U.S. and Canada. Today, the Central New Jersey team includes Drs. David Estin, Ty Olson, Christopher Gillis, and Anthony Conte—recently named Section Chief of Neurosurgery at Riverview Medical Center. Together, they represent the practice’s mission to combine advanced medicine with compassionate, patient-centered care.

The practice has consistently been at the forefront of neurosurgical advancements. It was the first in Central New Jersey to bring Gamma Knife and Cyberknife Stereotactic Radiosurgery to local patients, offering non-invasive treatment options. Neurosurgeons of New Jersey also pioneered the use of stereotactic navigation for minimally invasive brain and spine surgery, introduced the first O-Arm for spinal fusion, and established the region’s first comprehensive multidisciplinary brain tumor center. Today, the practice includes 25 board-certified physicians across 11 locations and is affiliated with NYU Langone Health, the nation’s top-rated academic neurosurgery program.

As part of its 30th anniversary, the group continues to expand access to care. New offices have opened in Eatontown, Holmdel’s Bell Works campus, and Toms River, ensuring patients throughout Monmouth, Ocean, and beyond receive the highest level of
expertise close to home. “Looking back on 30 years, we are immensely proud of what we’ve accomplished together with our colleagues, hospital partners, and the communities we serve,” said Dr. Lustgarten. “Looking ahead, we remain committed to advancing the field of neurosurgery and delivering the highest level of care to every patient who walks through our doors.”

With its strong foundation, growing reach, and dedication to innovation, Neurosurgeons of New Jersey remains the state’s leading destination for comprehensive brain, spine, and neurovascular care.
