King County Hospital Center traces its origins back to the early 19th century, born out of a critical need to care for the underprivileged in Brooklyn. Established in 1830 as the Brooklyn County Almshouse, our hospital was founded under a New York State law requiring counties, including Kings County (now Brooklyn), to procure land for the purpose of housing the poor. Our legacy of compassion and dedication continues to drive our mission to provide exceptional healthcare to all members of our community.

King Country Hospital Center is renowned for its comprehensive range of medical services, advanced technology, and compassionate care. Located in the heart of New York, we strive to offer the highest quality healthcare for patients of all ages. Our mission is to enhance the health and well-being of our community through innovative and accessible medical services.

Commitments:

The original vision was to create a facility dedicated to providing care for those in need, reflecting a deep commitment to social responsibility and public health. In 1837, the first hospital building was erected following the purchase of land from the Martense family for three thousand dollars. This marked the beginning of our long-standing tradition of service and care.
