Our Hospital

NewYork-Presbyterian Queens is a proud member of the NewYork-Presbyterian Healthcare System, one of the largest healthcare systems in the country, and an affiliate of the Weill Cornell Medical College of Cornell University.  In 2013, NewYork-Presbyterian Queens admitted close to 33,000 patients, had more than 162,000 outpatient visits, and treated 124,000 people through the emergency department. We offer high quality health care services in almost every specialty area. 

NewYork-Presbyterian Queens has worked hard to build services that are sensitive to the customs, traditions and needs of our diverse community. The hospital has multi-lingual physicians, nurses and other staff who offer real-time language translation services  in more than 100 languages and dialects. We also make considerable use of the Language Line® phone lines as well as our new mobile video interpretation technology.  Beyond language, we offer menus featuring foods popular with Asian patients - it is like a “taste of home” while at our hospital.
