About Our Care for Midtown Atlanta, GA
Midtown Atlanta is home to several large academic neurosurgery programs, but academic programs come with academic trade-offs: long wait lists, rotating fellows, and limited continuity of care. Our Hampton office offers Midtown patients a different model — direct access to both founding surgeons, same-week consultations, and no teaching hierarchy between you and your surgeon. We see Midtown residents from the arts district, Piedmont Park area, and along Peachtree Street for cervical disc replacement, motion-preservation spine procedures, and complex brain consultations. The 35-mile drive down I-75 takes about 45 minutes outside rush hour, and many Midtown patients find that one trip for consultation followed by telemedicine for follow-up is more efficient than weeks of phone tag with a Midtown academic center. We coordinate with Piedmont Atlanta and Emory facilities for any inpatient surgical needs that require an in-town location.
