As the only freestanding pediatric healthcare system in Georgia, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is the trusted leader in caring for kids. Located in Atlanta at the intersection of Interstate 85 and North Druid Hills Road, the Center for Advanced Pediatrics is a 260,000-square-foot medical office building that brings complex care specialists, modern technology and advanced research for outpatient pediatric care all under one roof. The Center for Advanced Pediatrics aims to provide a better way to treat children and teens with chronic diseases and complex care needs.
The Center for Advanced Pediatrics was the first new structure completed at the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta North Druid Hills campus, a major pediatric medical campus that will also be home to a relocated pediatric hospital, support staff offices, and more than 20 acres of greenspace and miles of walking trails and paths. The Center for Advanced Pediatrics, which broke ground in January 2017, houses more than 450 physicians and employees who manage more than 100,000 outpatient visits yearly.
“This is a groundbreaking moment for the entire Children’s team and our community of patient families, supporters and donors,” said Donna Hyland, Chief Executive Officer at Children’s. “The opening of the Center for Advanced Pediatrics marks a key milestone in our North Druid Hills campus journey. We’re creating a transformative pediatric destination to provide quality care for future generations to come, reinforcing our deep commitment to making Georgia’s kids better today and healthier tomorrow.”
The innovative eight-floor outpatient facility provides care across more than 20 pediatric specialties, with more than 250 rooms for patient care, exams, consults and procedures. Additional building features include a café, telemedicine capabilities, conference rooms, collaborative clinical space, patient family respite areas, mother’s rooms on every floor and a teaching kitchen to enhance specific clinical programs.
