List of Atlanta Hospitals

Hospitals in Atlanta are, on a basic level, a place for treatment of illness and injury; but the healthcare system in Atlanta is a little more complex than that. Certain hospitals specialize in different areas of health and medicine and many are involved in community groups and events as well. Some have even been working with officials in order to prepare for war and natural disaster.
