Long Beach Medical Center (formerly Long Beach Memorial Hospital) was a 403-bed teaching and community hospital located in Long Beach, New York. Long Beach Hospital was destroyed as a result of Hurricane Sandy. Hospital leaders are currently lobbying for state funds to rebuild the hospital. Nearby South Nassau Communities Hospital now operates a freestanding emergency department on the site of the former Long Beach Hospital.

It is affiliated with the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine and the New York College of Podiatric Medicine.

Medical staff residency training records and verification are available through the Federation of State Medical Boards' Federation Credentials Verification Service (FCVS) Closed Residency program records.
