The heart of incredible achievements.

One of our most exciting developments is the upcoming opening of our new heart transplant center.  “A life-saving heart transplant program at North Shore University Hospital will be a major resource for residents of Long Island, Queens and the outer boroughs,” said Alan Hartman, MD, Senior Vice President and Executive Director of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Northwell Health. “This gives transplant patients access to high-quality care, closer to home.”

Facing challenges head on.

From transplants to all of our surgical services, outstanding people are what drive our exceptional care. They question assumptions, push boundaries and always put patients first. The result? An impressive array of awards and designations:

• Bariatric Surgery Centers of Excellence as named by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery
• Named among the nation’s best hospitals by U.S. News & World Report for neurosurgery, heart surgery and GI surgery
• Designated Academic Centers of Excellence for minimally invasive surgery in gynecologic oncology and gynecology by the American Institute of Minimally Invasive Surgery
