UM Health Announces New Health Clinic in Troy to Expand Access to Specialized Care

The University of Michigan Medical School has announced plans to transform the former Kmart headquarters in Troy, Michigan into a new health clinic. The 7.28-acre vacant land will be used for this purpose, and the property will be purchased for $4.42 million. This move is seen as a starting point for UM Health’s broader and deeper presence in Southeast Michigan, with the ultimate goal of creating a nationwide care network that allows patients to receive world-class healthcare close to home.

The new Troy facility will be constructed according to UM’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) guidelines to minimize negative environmental impacts. This project is part of several initiatives aimed at increasing patient access, including the upcoming Healthcare Pavilion D. Dan and Betty Kahn in Ann Arbor and the Ypsilanti Health Center in downtown Ypsilanti, which is slated to open later this year.

Under the leadership of David Miller, MD, president of UM Health, the new facility is expected to offer innovative clinical programs such as multidisciplinary cancer care. These programs are designed to provide patients with comprehensive care that meets their unique needs and improves their quality of life. With this expansion, UM Health aims to provide more specialized services and improve patient outcomes while also reducing costs for patients.
