Naval Medical Center and was a member of the faculty at the Uniformed
Services University of the Health Sciences and the National Institutes
of Health. Dr. Miller’s research interests include outcome-based
analysis of prenatal care and prenatal diagnosis.
“The leadership of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology
at Saint Barnabas has spearheaded an outstanding program and I will
continue that vision,” says Dr. Miller. “My experience
as a clinician will assist me in enhancing current programs and services
to continue to address the health care needs of New Jersey women.”
Saint Barnabas Medical Center meets the needs of women throughout
the lifecycle. The Medical Center has the largest obstetrical service
in the state, with more than 7,200 babies born at the hospital each
year. The four subspecialty Divisions within the Department, with
exceptionally qualified staff, provide outstanding medical care for
women with gynecologic cancers; those with high-risk or complicated
pregnancies; women with conditions that effect the menstrual cycle,
fertility and hormonal issues; and women with conditions including
pelvic organ prolapse, urinary stress and/or urge incontinence, overactive
bladder, interstitial cystitis and other urogynecologic problems.
