Alpharetta and the Atlanta region expect and deserve greater patient access to quality medical care than ever before. Northside Hospital offers that with renowned physicians and full-service facilities nearby.
In August 2019, Northside Hospital merged with Gwinnett Health System. The expanded Northside Hospital system is one of Georgia’s leading health care providers, with five acute-care hospitals in Atlanta, Canton, Cumming, Duluth and Lawrenceville, and more than 250 outpatient locations across the state.
More Northside physicians are opening offices in North Fulton, Forsyth, Cherokee and Gwinnett counties to better serve patients closer to home and that aggressive growth is expected to continue. Virtual visits also are now available with many of Northside’s providers.
Northside leads the U.S. in newborn deliveries and is among the state’s top providers of cancer care, sports medicine, cardiovascular and surgical services. More than 3,900 physicians and 24,000 employees serve 4.6 million patient visits each year. BUILT TO BEAT CANCER The Northside Hospital Cancer Institute ranks in the top two among community cancer programs in the nation for newly diagnosed and treated cancer cases. With a convenient location on the Northside/Alpharetta Medical Campus, the Institute provides exceptional cancer treatment to Georgians looking for greater access to expert personalized care (including skin, lung, breast, liver and pancreas, gynecologic, colorectal and prostate cancers).
RECOGNIZED FOR EXCEPTIONAL CARDIAC CARE Northside Hospital Cardiovascular Institute has brought together Georgia’s leading cardiologists with the resources and technology of the Northside network. Together, the team has earned quality achievement awards for heart failure, heart attack and stroke care from national accreditation groups. Appointments are available in Braselton, Canton, Cumming, Holly Springs, Lawrenceville, Midtown Atlanta and Sandy Springs. UNDISPUTED LEADER IN MATERNITY SERVICES
Northside is well known and respected for its maternity services, which include a Level-III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). More than 25,000 babies were born at Northside hospitals in 2019. A teambased approach that uses the expertise of obstetricians and gynecologists, certified nurse midwives, pediatricians, nurses, lactation consultants and others means that all babies born at Northside receive the individualized, special care that is expected from the nation’s leader in maternity services.
