Our Clinical Partnerships

Our students spend their third and fourth years of medical school in a clerkship within our clinical campus system. In our Ohio teaching hospitals, located throughout the state, our students explore primary care and the full range of specialties in rural, suburban and urban practice settings. During clinical campus rotations, students gain the clinical skills to prosper in today’s rapidly changing health care environment. 

We have preeminent partnerships within our Clinical Education Network with both Cleveland Clinic and OhioHealth. Kettering Health in Dayton, Ohio, serves as our only regional clinical campus. Other exceptional health care systems, hospitals and ambulatory care settings throughout Ohio also provide high-quality clinical experiences for our medical students throughout all four years of their education.

An interconnected and coordinated statewide support system comprised of geographic divisions and units, each of which is anchored by a Heritage College campus paired with partnering hospitals that serve as clinical education cohort sites, support our medical students.
