Corewell Health-William Beaumont University Program Farmington Hills-Royal Oak Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a university-affiliated academic plastic surgery program embedded in the large Corewell Health/William Beaumont system, with training split across William Beaumont University Hospital Royal Oak (the system's flagship tertiary referral center) and Farmington Hills Hospital. The program draws on Beaumont's extensive subspecialty infrastructure, including onsite fellowships in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery, breast surgical oncology, and hand/microsurgery-adjacent orthopedic subspecialties, giving residents exposure to complex reconstructive cases within a broader multi-hospital academic network. Corewell Health's institutional GME mission emphasizes training physicians for diverse urban and suburban patient populations while advancing medicine through research and innovation, and the system-wide Research Institute provides infrastructure for resident scholarly activity. The program sits within a large multi-specialty teaching hospital environment rather than a freestanding academic department, suggesting value placed on residents who can navigate a complex, multi-site health system while building a case volume across both aesthetic and reconstructive domains.
