Located in the heart of Oakland County, POH Regional Medical Center serves one of the fastest growing regions in the State of Michigan. Surrounding the Hospital are communities ranging from small townships and villages to established suburban cities, spanning the spectrum from urban to rural. This diversity not only provides broad-based medical experiences, but also offers a variety of attractive living options.

Scenic, rolling woodlands and over 400 lakes create a graceful, relaxing landscape. Fishing, swimming, waterskiing, and sailing are literally at your doorstep. Horseback riding, hiking, tennis, and more than 50 private and public golf courses make this area especially appealing to active people. As the weather turns cooler, downhill and cross-country skiing, skating, tobogganing, and ice-fishing dominate the outdoor agenda. No matter what the season, the area remains unrivaled in accessible, well-managed recreational facilities.

The region features an equally varied choice of cultural and entertainment attractions. One of the nation's greatest architectural treasures, Cranbrook Education Community welcomes people from all over the world to visit its Art Museum, Institute of Science, and Cranbrook House and Gardens. The renowned Meadow Brook Theater offers professional stage productions, and the Meadow Brook Music Festival is the summer home of the internationally acclaimed Detroit Symphony Orchestra.

The-award-winning Palace of Auburn Hills, home to the Detroit Pistons, is recognized throughout the United States as the premier indoor venue for entertaining. Exceptional performers are coupled with unlimited amenities and special patron services.

POH provides on-site Emergency Medical Services to the Palace of Auburn Hills and the DTE Energy Music Theatre.

Just 45 minutes away in downtown Detroit, the Detroit Red Wings skate at Joe Louis Arena and the Detroit Tigers run the bases at Comerica Park.
