Research-backed clinical care by MSU faculty

MSU Health Care is the multi-specialty medical practice of Michigan State University, with approximately 300 physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants. Our providers are university researchers and academic professors, spanning 25 adult and pediatric specialties. Our commitment to education allows our providers to teach future medical professionals and participate in research. Our large clinical practice connects you to the latest medical advancements, including opportunities to participate in clinical trials.

Our providers practice at office locations throughout the greater Lansing area, and our newest location in Detroit and serve patients from Mid-Michigan, and beyond. The largest clinical practice location is the MSU Clinical Center, situated on the MSU campus in East Lansing. This site offers multiple primary and specialty services, as well as a pharmacy, laboratory and radiology services. Our providers also treat patients at McLaren Greater Lansing and Sparrow Hospitals, in addition to several outlying community hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, wound care centers, and Ingham County Health Department clinics.

Comprehensive care

MSU HealthTeam provides the most comprehensive services in Mid-Michigan. Our primary care providers help keep you well and administer preventive care for the youngest through our most geriatric neighbors, while our sports medicine providers are at the ready on the field to respond to acute athletic injuries.

You can often find us collaborating to solve problems and transform lives within our community. We help bring advanced health care to the area through vital partnerships such as the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit at Sparrow in 2011 and the Interventional Neurology Stroke service in 2013. We provide the Trauma Surgeons for Sparrow Hospital’s Trauma Center and the Neonatologists for Sparrow Hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. 

Patient Centered Primary Care

In addition to the specialty services we are most known for, MSU HealthTeam also has a significant primary care practice, consisting of pediatrics, family medicine, and internal medicine. All of our primary care offices provide comprehensive care and focus on keeping you well, through a patient-centered approach,which is why our hard-working providers have earned Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan’s Patient Centered Medical Home distinction. We are pleased to earn this distinction because BCBSM Patient Centered Medical Home practices have a lower rate of ER visits and hospital stays for both adults and children. View the BCBSM 2017 PCMH Fact Sheet for details.

Diagnostics and Testing

MSU HealthTeam’s diagnostics are led by the Department of Radiology, conveniently located within a modern, free-standing facility on campus, as well as other locations in the community We are able to provide patients with the latest technological imaging modalities, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), and Positron Emission Tomography (PET-CT) We also have full general diagnostic imaging capabilities with digital mammography, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, bone density scanning through dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and interventional services.

In 2014 we opened a state-of-the-art Women’s Imaging Center dedicated to women’s health. Mammography, biopsies, DXA and ultrasound are all located on the sixth floor of the Hannah Technical and Research Center just across from the campus on Hagadorn road.

Our diagnostic radiology equipment provides the safest and highest quality images available statewide. Through a partnership with Sparrow Hospital, we offer low dose CT, which reduces by up to half, the X-ray exposure of traditional CT. With an onsite radioisotope production laboratory, we uniquely provide PET-CT patients with access to short-lived radioisotopes which render exquisite images of the heart and other vital organs. Our specialty laboratories, including our genetics laboratory, provide specialty testing that hospital laboratories refer to us.

Comprehensive medical/nursing student teaching, cutting edge research, state-of-the-art equipment, highest quality providers – MSU HealthTeam is keeping Mid-Michigan well, now and for future generations.
