The University of Michigan Health (UMH)-Sparrow Hospital offers an exceptional one-year, ACGME-accredited Surgical Critical Care Fellowship. This program provides hands-on training in a dynamic, high-volume, high-acuity environment, with 590 beds, including 49 adult ICU beds and 12 pediatric ICU beds, laying a strong foundation for critical care expertise.

UMH-Sparrow Hospital is a leading center for trauma and critical care in mid-Michigan, treating a wide range of cases, with approximately 90% of trauma patients presenting with blunt injuries and 10% with penetrating injuries. Fellows will have the opportunity to work alongside an interdisciplinary team of experts in Acute Care Surgery, Cardiovascular, Thoracic, Urology, Orthopedic Trauma, and Plastic/Reconstructive Surgery, gaining experience in multidisciplinary critical care.

The fellowship is structured to cultivate a comprehensive skill set in critical care, with core rotations in Surgical, Medical, and Pediatric Critical Care. Fellows may also customize their training with elective rotations to align with their individual interests and career goals. Additional educational opportunities include Critical Care conferences, Journal Club, and weekly didactic sessions to further enhance knowledge.

Upon successful completion of the fellowship, trainees will be eligible to sit for the SCC Certifying Exam offered by the American Board of Surgery.
