What makes
Graduate Medical Education (GME) so special at Sparrow?
The
vital link to academic medicine: Michigan
State University (MSU) hosts the College of Human Medicine,
the College of Osteopathic Medicine, and many other departments which set
the foundation for clinical and academic leadership through a stimulating
environment. All of Sparrow’s internships, residencies and fellowships
are affiliated with one or both of the nationally recognized MSU medical
schools, a partnership that encourages excellence. |

Welcome!
As program director of the Sparrow Osteopathic
Internal Medicine Residency Program, I would like to
thank you for taking the time to learn more about our
program. We are thrilled to be able to offer this
opportunity to you, and we truly believe that this
residency program will rise to the top of our
profession. This program was conceived as a
collaboration between MSU-COM, the highest ranking
Osteopathic college in the nation, and Sparrow Hospital,
the largest and most diverse hospital in the
mid-Michigan region. MSU-COM and Sparrow Hospital have a
long tradition of excellence in graduate medical
education, and we have worked hard to bring the most
outstanding attributes of both institutions together in
this new program.
This is an exciting time in the
mid-Michigan region. High level discussions have already
begun to promote even more collaboration between the
medical entities in the area, including Sparrow
Hospital, Ingham Regional Medical Center, the College of
Osteopathic Medicine, and the MSU College of Human
Medicine. We hope to eventually expand our program into
a dually certified (AOA and ACGME) program
that will set the national standard for community-based
postgraduate medical education. We hope you will share
in the excitement and join us for an outstanding
education in internal medicine.
Tom Mohr,D.O
