The first U.S. medical school to establish a hospital, our tradition of excellence in academic medicine continues, with University of Michigan Health ranking among the nation’s best hospitals in more specialties than any other Michigan hospital, according to U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals Rankings.
Michigan Medicine’s 28 ACGME and 3 CODA residency programs are also considered among the best in the United States as reported in Doximity’s Residency Navigator, which compiles current resident and recent alumni satisfaction rates, as well as reputation data and objective data:
- 14 programs rank in top 10
- 9 programs rank in top 25
