Ann Arbor-based Michigan Medicine has received a $40 million gift to support the construction of a new outpatient center as well as mental health research.
Of the donation, $25 million will go toward the construction of a multidisciplinary clinical facility that will be located in Troy, Mich., according to a June 12 news release. The gift comes from Kenneth Eisenberg, and the facility will be named the Frances and Kenneth Eisenberg Troy Center for Specialty Care in honor of the donor and his late wife.
The Frances and Kenneth Eisenberg Troy Center for Specialty Care is expected to be completed in spring 2027 and will be the system’s first facility in Oakland County. Planned programs include advanced cancer care services, musculoskeletal and sports medicine, and reproductive medicine. Additional diagnostic and therapeutic services will include an ambulatory surgery and procedure center, infusion suite, and imaging services including CT, MRI and mammography.
The donation will also allocate $15 million to build upon the work at the Frances and Kenneth Eisenberg and Family Depression Center. The gift will support research awards, policy initiatives and educational events, and facilitate the launch of a large-scale research initiative to identify, target and prevent the drivers of depression in populations at high risk.
The gift will also create two new medical school professorship funds for the Frances Aftel Eisenberg Research Professorship.
