During your training with us, you will care for patients with a broad spectrum of disease from those with community-acquired pneumonia or RSV, to some of the most interesting and unusual diseases seen anywhere in the world. We are fortunate to provide care for a diverse patient population, with patients representing a wide variety of ethnic, racial, and socioeconomic backgrounds.

Resident salaries are negotiated by the House Officers Association (HOA) and are consistent across the institution. Our salaries are very competitive and allow residents flexibility to maintain financial independence. In addition, residents are provided an additional “lump sum” payment of approximately 8% of the annual salary to encourage savings, although these funds may be used in any manner the resident wishes.

At the University of Michigan Medical School, we are proud to have over 30 Med-Peds trained faculty. As hospitalists, primary care physicians, and subspecialists, they are integral in the care of our patients and training of our residents.
Our robust network of Med-Peds faculty are eager to mentor and guide our trainees. We take a very personal approach with all of our residents. From the time you interview, join our program, graduate and beyond, we aim to understand your needs and help you meet your professional and personal goals.
As an intern, you will start by being paired with a primary continuity clinic preceptor and meeting with the Program Director and an assigned Assistant Program Director on a regular basis. From there, we link you with other faculty and peers for further career, profession and life advising and mentoring to meet your specific needs.
Our attrition rate is one of the lowest in the country, and can be attributed to the mentoring and role modeling of our Med-Peds faculty, extensive involvement of our Program Directors in your education, and strong support from the Departments of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics.
