On April 25th, 2024 we officially announced the forming of our union to the UMMC leadership. See how far we’ve come since!

We demand better for not only ourselves, but for everyone we serve as well.

“I am supporting our union because I believe in giving residents and fellows a collective voice to advocate for ourselves, our patients, and our communities. We work tirelessly to support each other and our patients and deserve to be heard. We demand better for not only ourselves, but for everyone we serve as well.”

Ari Goldstein, Family Medicine

Residents and Fellows deserve a collective voice

“I support our union to improve the working conditions at UMMC and to give us resources to better support our patients. Residents and fellows deserve a collective voice to speak and negotiate for our needs and the needs of those we serve.”

Chelsea Cosner, MD - Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
