MetroHealth
From their beginning as Cleveland’s first academic medical center in 1837, MetroHealth has been dedicated to the science of improving health care. MetroHealth is a major teaching hospital for Case Western Reserve University, one of the nation’s leading research universities, and all of our active physician staff holds faculty appointments at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.
They are comprised of basic scientists, clinical scientists, and epidemiologists and are extensively funded by agencies such as the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association. The integrated approaches lead to unique and novel diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.
Their ongoing commitment to academic and clinical excellence, coupled with extensive capabilities in biotechnology, bioengineering, genetics, and population science, will ensure that MetroHealth continues to grow as one of the major research and training centers in the country.
MetroHealth is best known for its "bench to bedside" approach to research. Their interdisciplinary research teams build on MetroHealth’s mission by taking research from the laboratory to the clinical setting, where it directly benefits patients.
