Nassau University Medical Center
Nassau University Medical Center (NUMC) is a 530-bed tertiary care teaching hospital that has been the primary source of medical care for millions of Nassau County residents since 1935. The heart of NuHealth – a Long Island-based health system committed to deliver coordinated medical care, disease and lifestyle management to everyone, at every stage of life, NUMC is affiliated with the North Shore-LIJ Health System.
In addition to its own extensive medical and surgical capabilities, NUMC’s affiliation with the North Shore-LIJ Health System allows NUMC to transfer or refer patients requiring highly specialized medicine outside the prevue of care offered at NUMC. On-site partnerships with some of the region's top specialists, including the North Shore-LIJ cardiology team, expands NUMC’s ability to bring highly specialized medicine to NUMC.
