Dr. Christopher Anthony Gitzelmann

My daughter suffered from a severe leg injury while climbing a tree. She was not cared for properly at another facility and developed an infection. Upon bringing her to St Barnabas Medical Center ER, Dr. Gitzelmann and his staff took the absolute BEST care for her. It was his staff who determined that her wound still contained foreign body. They booked an operating room immediately and made sure she was properly taken care of. All she cared about at the time was can she cheer and can she go back to school. Not only did she receive 1st honor roll that marking period but here she is 3 months later killing it on the mat too. I can never thank this amazing team of doctors enough for not only saving my daughters life, but for giving her all of her hopes and dreams back!

Dr. Gitzelmann and his team cared for my son with a hernia and needed surgery. He is a very compassionate surgeon who is thoughtful and kind. We appreciate his surgical talent as he cared for our child.
