Outpatient Care
Residents have the opportunity to train in a number of outpatient settings that include experiences in medical and surgical subspecialties, women's health, behavioral and community experiences, practice management, as well as in the Clinical Simulation Center.
Chelsea Health Center
The Chelsea Health Center is an academic clinic that serves the community of Chelsea, Michigan. It is a Michigan Medicine facility which opened in 1978. Just 15 miles west of Ann Arbor, Chelsea is the essence of "small town USA," with a wide variety of small industries and a vibrant main street full of shops, art galleries, and restaurants. We provide comprehensive patient-centered care and offer a collegial environment for residents and faculty. This includes an emphasis on team-based, behaviorally integrated care and training.
The clinic is organized into three patient care teams of residents and faculty that have the feel of small group practices. Chelsea is a model academic and community practice, with faculty and residents practicing side-by-side and admitting patients to the Department's inpatient service at Chelsea Hospital, which is a short walk away and where faculty and residents often meet for lunch.
Ypsilanti Health Center
The new Ypsilanti Health Center opens in June 2025. From advanced testing services and chronic disease management to preventative care and mental health services, the new Ypsilanti Health Center is designed to bring advanced health care closer to home for people in and around the Ypsilanti community. The brand new clinic, located 11 miles east of Ann Arbor in the heart of downtown Ypsilanti, offers services including: lab, nutrition, pharmacy, social work, radiology, and procedures.
Ypsilanti is known for its diverse community, ranging from academic professionals (Eastern Michigan University, Washtenaw Community College) to at-risk populations. Ypsilanti feels like a family with faculty and residents working side-by-side and admitting patients to the University of Michigan Family Medicine Inpatient Service.
Providers at the Ypsilanti Health Center care for a diverse population that includes Black, white, Hispanic, Middle Eastern, West African, and immigrant populations. The patient population is socio-economically diverse and also includes a large number of obstetrical patients.
Inpatient Care
The program offers residents a unique opportunity to practice in both a local, community hospital as well as the tertiary care University Hospital. Residents care for patients with a broad range of medical problems and are supervised exclusively by Department of Family Medicine faculty.
Our training program offers all our residents educational opportunities in the University Hospital, the C.S. Mott Children's Hospital & Von Voigtlander Women's Hospital, a community hospital, as well as the outpatient setting. Our emphasis on combined university and community training offers residents the broadest possible family medicine experience and the greatest flexibility upon graduation.
Family Medicine residents learn obstetrics from both Family Medicine obstetrical faculty as well as OBGYN faculty. The Department runs its own Family Medicine Birth Obstetric and Newborn service.
The University of Michigan offers outstanding opportunities in every aspect of medicine. Our residents train with leaders in every medical and surgical field and have access to cutting edge diagnostic tests and treatments.
