About Our Medical Center

Excellence in Patient Care

Every year, our highly skilled teams of physicians, nurses, nutritionists, physical therapists, laboratory technicians, social workers, and chaplains provide medical and support services to more than a half million Long Islanders. Our skilled, compassionate staff and our unique specialty services make us Long Island's first-choice hospital.

Excellence in Research

We are Long Island's only university-based medical center. Not only do we offer the latest advances in medicine, we are actively enhancing medical knowledge through basic science and clinical research.

Excellence in Education

We serve as an educational resource for students of the University's School of Medicine and the Health Sciences Schools, Nursing, Dental Medicine, Social Welfare, and the Health Technology and Management. We also serve as a healthcare educational resource for the community, our patients and their families.

Excellence in Community Service

We are dedicated to serving Long Islanders. As part of this dedication, we provide many support and educational services at the medical center and out in the community.
