Your child, our priority

We hope that your child never needs to visit a hospital, but if they do, it's reassuring to know that UM Health-Sparrow can provide the care you need close by. A leader in pediatric care, we’ve partnered with Michigan Medicine to bring even more access to specialized pediatric care and treatments to our community. With the Michigan Medicine partnership, UM Health-Sparrow is now connected with the nationally ranked Michigan Medicine C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital, with a deliberate focus on keeping patient care close to home for families in the Mid-Michigan region. The relationship is designed to strengthen existing clinical services and create additional pediatric specialty service availability within the communities that UM Health-Sparrow serves.

With more than 40,000 visits annually, it is clear that families throughout Mid-Michigan turn to us to care for their ill or injured children. Our collaboration will significantly enhance the patient experience and lead to more coordinated care for pediatric patients from around the region. We are committed to providing the right care, at the right time, in the right place.
