Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a five-year urology program (one preliminary general surgery year plus four dedicated years, two residents per level) at a top-26 nationally ranked tertiary-care urology department within Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital in Royal Oak, MI. The department offers full-spectrum robotic/laparoscopic surgery, a nationally and internationally renowned pediatric urology division, and subspecialty depth spanning male infertility, female pelvic medicine/reconstructive surgery, stone disease, and urologic oncology. Research is structurally embedded through the Ministrelli Program for Urology Research and Education (MPURE), which endows dedicated research and education infrastructure alongside NIH, commercial, and philanthropic funding, and the program explicitly emphasizes progressive autonomy toward independent urologic practice. The stated mission blends compassionate community-facing care with tertiary/quaternary complexity, and international urology exposure signals a program oriented toward broadly trained, academically engaged surgeons rather than a narrow community-practice pipeline.
