History
USA Health University Hospital is a state-certified Level I trauma center and nationally ranked burn center. We are the major referral center for southwest Alabama, southeast Mississippi and portions of northwest Florida. We are one of two Level 1 trauma centers in the state, and the only one between New Orleans and Tallahassee.
Our faculty members are diverse in their training and educational focuses. This allows the residents to see a broad range of practice patterns and to see how different providers interpret and incorporate the literature into their practice. There is no “this is way things are done here.” Our residents see more of the “art of medicine” and develop their own practice patterns.
We are privileged to treat our local community and function as a safety net hospital and also to treat complicated cancer, burn, trauma and neurologic patients. It is a great mix of patients and gives our residents broad exposure. It is an honor and privilege to serve our patient population, many of whom are underserved and rely on our system for access to healthcare.
