Huntington Hospital is part of the North Shore Health System. Its newly renovated rooms and departments display the strength of its medical staff and personnel.
Huntington Hospital was the first hospital in Suffolk County to offer High Dose Rate, Remote Afterloading Brachytherapy. This machine allows the Radiation Oncologists to place high activity radioactive sources directly into tumors. We are using this unit to treat tumors of the Prostate, Lung, Brain, Esophagus, Rectum, Uterus and Head and Neck.
The Department of Radiation Oncology treats both in-patients and out-patients on the Linear Accelerator. Huntington Hospital is the community leader for prostate seed implants, performing more implants per year than any hospital in the region.

On October 24, 1997, the Most Rev. John R. McGann, D.D., Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rockville Centre, announced the formation of Catholic Health Services of Long Island (CHS), a new organization which oversee and coordinate the delivery of services in the four Diocesan hospitals, Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center, West Islip; Mercy Medical Center, Rockville Centre; St. Charles Hospital and Rehabilitation Center, Port Jefferson; and St. Francis Hospital-The Heart Center, Roslyn. In less than three years, CHS has expanded to now include an array of health care organizations.The new structure offers each facility the means to embrace the changes affecting the healthcare delivery system in today's environment, while preserving commitment to high-quality, compassionate care, firmly rooted in the ethical and social teachings of the Church.
The Radiation Therapy Department at St. Catherine's has a very active Prostate Seed Implant Program.
