For Patients

A leading academic medical center, Emory saves lives by combining top-notch clinical care with pioneering scientific discovery.

Our School of Medicine faculty members provide clinical care in Emory-owned facilities as well as three major affiliate hospital systems: one of the nation's most respected veterans hospitals, one of the largest pediatric health systems in the U.S., and a Level I trauma center. Emory is a recognized leader in providing patients with access to innovative treatments they can’t find at many other health care facilities.

If you are a patient at one of our affiliate hospitals, be sure to visit the hospital websites.
