Alumni Relations
The Alumni Relations Program is a joint effort supported by the Henry Ford Medical Group and the Development Office. The program is the latest effort in Henry Ford Health’s long tradition of excellence in physician education. At the core of that education are the personal and professional relationships developed between physicians, staff, residents, and fellows - relationships that will be continued and strengthened through increased connection, communication, and engagement initiatives for our community.
Alumni Relations, in partnership with the HFMG Alumni Association, offers a wide range of services and benefits to HFMG Alumni. By connecting with the Association, you can stay in touch with colleagues and stay abreast of opportunities for professional growth.
