Founded in 1915 after consultations with physicians at Johns Hopkins Hospital and the Mayo Clinic, the Henry Ford Medical Group has established itself as one of the premier group practices in the nation. Our large academic enterprise places us in the top three of traditionally independent group practices through:

• Clinical Care: The breadth and depth of the Henry Ford Medical Group’s clinical services is unparalleled by any other independent academic medical center. Our scale and scope are in the 99th percentile of all group practices, with visit volumes larger than most group practices. We are national leaders in primary care with expertise in preventive care services and the health management of senior citizens. Our specialty Centers of Excellence are national leaders as well, providing advanced tertiary and quaternary care with a focus on discovery and innovation.
• Education: One-third of all physicians in Michigan received training at Henry Ford, and our post-graduate medical education enterprise is among the largest in the country.
• Research: Henry Ford is in the top 6% of National Institutes of Health-funded institutions and in Michigan is exceeded only by the University of Michigan and Wayne State University
