Hospital for Special Surgery Opens New Location in Paramus

New Jersey Business—November 18, 2014

Patients from 105 countries and all 50 states come to Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), and now HSS has come to New Jersey.

The New York City specialty hospital for orthopedics and rheumatology celebrated the grand opening of Hospital for Special Surgery Paramus Outpatient Center, at 140 East Ridgewood Avenue, with a ribbon-cutting on November 17.

"Expanding our patient-centered care and services in the New Jersey market is an important part of the hospital’s growth strategy," said Louis A. Shapiro, president and CEO of Hospital for Special Surgery. "New Jersey residents will be able to receive the same high level of care we offer in Manhattan, closer to where they live."
 

"I think the biggest benefit will be the convenience factor. Patients can now get the same outstanding care they've been receiving in Manhattan right in their own backyard," said Anil Ranawat, M.D., an orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine. Dr. Ranawat, who lives in Bergen County and grew up there, will now see patients in Paramus and in New York City.

The Paramus office is the hospital's first New Jersey location. HSS also has offices on Long Island, in Queens, and in Greenwich, Connecticut.
