The Northport VA Medical Center, in particular, serves veterans from the Nassau and Suffolk Counties of Long Island and the surrounding 5 boroughs of New York. Northport is a 502-bed teaching hospital that serves about 18,000 patients per year. Doctors there perform 633 inpatient and 1,822 outpatient surgeries a year.
