Welcome to the Wayne State University School of Medicine Department of Anesthesiology Residency Program!

The mission of the Wayne State University School of Medicine Department of Anesthesiology Residency Program is to recruit a diverse set of trainees who will be prepared to seek out careers in academics, private practice, and research. We will expose them to clinical research, quality improvement and patient safety issues, as well as issues of health policy during their training. Our residents are immersed in a rich clinical environment, which grooms them for future success. The ultimate goal in our program is to train well-rounded anesthesiologists who are able to think critically, act collaboratively, and thrive in a challenging, fast-paced environment. 

Our program is a three year ACGME accredited program that received continued accreditation in April 2022. 

The Residency Program is based out of Trinity Health Oakland in Pontiac, Michigan, and we are sponsored by the WSU Affiliated Internal Medicine and General Surgery Programs, also here at Trinity Health Oakland. Our program currently has 18 total residents throughout three classes of CA-1s, CA-2s, and CA-3s.
