As Long Island's only independent community hospital, we are 100% committed to becoming the community's healthcare provider of choice with our greatly enhanced services including the Knapp Cardiac Care Center, our highly‑advanced heart disease diagnosis and treatment facility, our new modern surgical pavilion, our unique ER approach, and our high‑touch services including women's imaging, sleep laboratory and orthopedics and more.

These services are delivered with the highest level of compassion by our LI Community Hospital staff – Long Islanders with an unmistakable mix of courage and heart who care about the people right here in our community and whose sole purpose is to provide personalized comfort.
