Teaching Hospitals

University of Alberta Hospital, situated in the Walter Mackenzie Health Centre (WMC), is the main teaching site for the University of Alberta. The WMC also contains the Mazankowski Heart Institute (MAHI) and the Stollery Children's Hospital. It is the center of a healthcare hub, surrounded by the Kaye Edmonton Clinic (ZLC), Zeidler Ledcor Centre, Edmonton Clinic Health Academy (ECHA), Cross Cancer Institute (CCI), Clinical Sciences Building (CSB) and the Katz Group/Rexall Centre. Every building is connected by a pedway, which is especially helpful during winter. It has an open concept design, maximizing resident exposure to sunlight. The WMC also has four coffee shops and a 24-hour Tim Hortons. The Clinical Sciences Building (CSB) houses the Geriatric Medicine Division Office.

Royal Alexandra Hospital is located in downtown Edmonton, servicing a large inner-city patient population. With more than 600 beds, it is Edmonton's second-largest hospital, and it houses services unavailable at the University Hospital, such as thoracic surgery, addiction medicine, ophthalmology, and OBGYN. The recently built Robbins Pavilion extension created access to state-of-the-art cardiology services (CCU) and increased the number of acute medicine beds available.
