Mission Statement

Our mission is to train Surgery Residents to provide compassionate, extraordinary care to a diverse population. The Surgery Residency Program at Corewell Health Farmington Hills Hospital is designed to provide a comprehensive learning experience that prepares physicians to meet the demands of a contemporary surgical practice in urban and suburban community hospitals. In alignment with our Institutional mission, Residents learn to provide patient-and family-centered care, contributing to the health and well-being of patients throughout the community. We attempt to retain our graduates to continue to serve our community. To accomplish our mission, we have developed a strong clinical curriculum that prioritizes education over service, and an educational structure that values residents as a group and as individuals with separate learning needs and ambitions.

The combined Beaumont Health Spectrum Health system has adopted an overall Mission to “Improve health, instill humanity, and inspire hope”, which we feel is consistent with our stated GME Mission Statement.
