The Flint community's vibrant downtown offers a nationally recognized Farmers' Market; restored historical theater; restaurants, clubs, breweries, coffee and gift shops; live music; special events such as "Back to the Bricks" classic car cruise and the world-class Crim Festival of Races; and a cultural center with art exhibits, film festivals, art walks, planetarium, live theater, discovery museum, institutes of music and art, repertory theater, library and gardens.

Work environment

? Collegial atmosphere: Small enough to form meaningful work relationships with learners and colleagues and large enough to provide interesting cases and opportunities to make a difference.

? Main practice location: 2nd, 4th, and 9th floors of the main hospital building at 1 Hurley Plaza, Flint, Mich. 48503.

? The nearby Flint Farmers' Market provides access to fresh produce, bakeries, restaurants, and shopping. The nearby Flint Cultural Center is befitting for the one-time largest General Motors complex in the world. And two Big Ten schools have downtown Flint locations as well: Michigan State University and the University of Michigan-Flint. A third world-class institution, Kettering University, is also nearby, as is Mott Community College. Across the street from Hurley Medical Center, just past Hurley's outdoor fitness trail, is Atwood Stadium, where the Flint City Bucks soccer team plays home games.

? Flint/Genesee County area: Quick access to hiking, camping, swimming, skiing, boating, biking, golfing, sporting events, recreational sport teams, orchards, dairies, movies, theater, concerts, festivals, and stress-free travel, thanks to Flint's Bishop International Airport, one of the easiest airports to use in the Midwest.
