Hematology & Oncology Fellowship

Message From Our Program Director

The Henry Ford Providence Fellowship Program is a hybrid Community and Academic Program in Hematology-Oncology. Our program, which matches four Fellows per year, has been Accredited by the ACGME since July 1, 2003, and has become a premier program in Community Medicine with strong Academic ties. Our Fellows rotate through two hospitals, one suburban and one urban setting. We have had a long collaboration with Karmanos Cancer Center, a renowned Cancer Center, and our Fellows rotate there both for specialty clinics such as lung, breast, and genitourinary, amongst others, as well as inpatient and outpatient stem cell transplant and CAR-T clinics. Our program has a vibrant Clinical Trial program with SWOG, pharmaceutical and Henry Ford Detroit clinical trials available to our patients. We use a multitude of bispecific therapies in an outpatient setting which is unique for a community hospital. Our fellows have opportunities to perform research and quality improvement projects. We are proud of our record of achievement in training Fellows who successfully secure positions in either Academia or community hospitals and private practices.
