Welcome

Welcome to Graduate Medical Education (GME) at Nassau University Medical Center (NUMC). We are a nationally accredited, community teaching hospital in Nassau County, Long Island. NUMC is ideally located-less than 30 miles to Manhattan, in close proximity to Long Island's beaches, and easily accessible to the thousands of Long Islanders whom we serve.

We are a 1,200-bed health care system, which includes 530 tertiary care beds in the teaching hospital, and a 589-bed skilled nursing facility. These large facilities and sizeable teaching faculty permit us to provide the highest standards of quality in both education and patient care. Our goal is to help our residents become mature, competent, compassionate physicians.

Our residency programs are committed to clinical excellence through training, research, and patient services. The GME curriculum is designed to be dynamic and responsive to each resident's needs while supporting personal growth and autonomy. We seek residents from all backgrounds who approach training with enthusiasm and a dedication to excellence. In turn, we are committed to providing superb training for each of our residents in a supportive and respectful atmosphere.
