Kimball Medical Center, formerly Paul Kimball Hospital, is a hospital located in Lakewood Township, New Jersey that serves parts of northern Ocean County and southern Monmouth County. The hospital is affiliated with the Saint Barnabas Health Care System. Kimball Medical Center also operates two satellite facilities: a psychiatric hospital known as Kimball Behavioral Health (consisting of 100 inpatient beds) in Toms River and The Center for Healthy Living in Lakewood.
Kimball originated as a small community hospital founded in 1913. Its first six operating rooms were built in 1969, with two more added in 1985.
