The Floating Hospital offers high-quality medical, dental, and mental health care out of its main clinic in Long Island City, Queens with specialties including foot, infectious disease, and vision on-site, as well as a pharmacy. Our philosophy of “Everyone is Welcome” means we provide care, regardless of ability to pay, to New York City families.
Founded in 1866, The Floating Hospital was one of the first pediatric healthcare charities in New York City dedicated to caring for the city's impoverished children and their families. Today, The Floating provides services from a modern clinic with an expanded capacity to serve the community.
