The Nassau University Medical Center is located in Nassau County, a sound suburban community which offers a superior quality of life to its residents. There is a diversity of recreational and cultural facilities that includes parks, theaters, beaches and sports facilities.

Neighboring the Medical Center is Eisenhower Park, a vast expanse of land that has been developed for recreational activities of all kinds. The 1998 Goodwill Games was hosted at the Nassau Coliseum, Eisenhower park and the Mitchell Field Park. Recreation and cultural facilities are plentiful and include four colleges, each within five miles of the hospitals. The world-famous Jones Beach, several state parks with tennis, horseback riding, swimming and golf and several theaters nearby. For those interested in boating, fishing or surfing, both the Atlantic Ocean and Long Island Sound are readily accessible. Music lovers will find many local concert programs with internationally known performing artists. Historical sites and museums as well as many wildlife preserves are found throughout the Long Island area. Also, New York City can be reached from the medical center either by car or by train within 45 minutes.

The Nassau-Suffolk area of Long Island, which now has a population of 3,000,000, is serviced by the medical center. It is constantly growing and in need of practicing physicians in all fields. A large number of our graduates practice in this still unspoiled bi-county area which is our backyard and enjoy the rare combination of the modern teaching medical center, pleasant suburban living, a busy practice and the proximity to New York City's vast resources.
