Monmouth Mall Getting A Pediatrics/Women's Heath/Urgent Care Site

EATONTOWN, NJ — Monmouth Medical Center and Children's Specialized will be opening a children's pediatric office, women's health, urgent care and family wellness center at Monmouth Mall.

The outpost will be called RWJBarnabas Health Family Care & Wellness and it will be a massive, four-story, 82,000-square-foot medical and wellness facility located at the mall.

Construction already started and it is slated for completion in October 2021. The new medical office building located adjacent to Boscov’s Department store. An existing three-story parking garage is nearby. That's a rendering of how it will look, above.

RWJBarnabas says it will provide "convenient access to comprehensive women’s services, pediatric services, wellness education and resources, plus a laboratory and blood drawing station and an Urgent Care Center."

The new location will focus on women’s and children’s health. Monmouth Medical Center will offer pediatric subspecialty practices, including cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, surgery and urology, pulmonology and infectious diseases. Doctors, nurses and staff from Children's Specialized will be based there and will provide both medical and psychological therapy services, including developmental and behavioral services, psychiatry, neurology and physiatry. Therapy services will include audiology, speech language, occupational, physical and psychology.

The outpost will also house comprehensive women’s services, including maternal/fetal medicine physician offices, a uro-gynecological practice and a lactation center. The building will also serve as the new home for MMC’s trailblazing and award-winning Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders Center.

“This new facility will enable more patients to access to our nationally recognized and highly advanced maternity and neonatal services,” said Dr. Robert Graebe, Chair and Program Director of OB-GYN at Monmouth Medical Center. “Monmouth Medical Center has built one of the safest and most comprehensive OB-GYN programs in the nation and we’re thankful for the ability to extend our reach for families in the region.”

Programs offered to Monmouth Medical Center's Cancer Support Community will also be hosted in the building.

“RWJBarnabas Health Family Care & Wellness at Eatontown is central to our strategy to transform care throughout Monmouth County,” said Eric Carney, President and CEO of Monmouth Medical Center. “From the development of the Vogel Medical Campus at Tinton Falls, to our investments in the MMC campus and expanding our outpatient services, we are evolving to provide the best experience for our patients and communities, and we are proud to work with everyone we serve to deliver care for the future of Monmouth County.”
