Why North Carolina Patients Choose Atlanta General and Bariatric Surgery Center

Patients from the Highlands, Asheville, and the I-85 corridor of Western North Carolina have been traveling to Atlanta General and Bariatric Surgery Center to access specialized bariatric surgery and general surgery care that can be difficult to find closer to home. As the first and only comprehensive outpatient surgery center of its kind in Johns Creek, GA, our board-certified surgeons are MBSA and AAAHC-accredited, our facility has been recognized as a Best of Georgia winner in 2024 and 2025, and our 1:1 nurse-to-patient ratio ensures every patient receives attentive, individualized care from first consultation through full recovery.

For patients in the Highlands, Cashiers, and Asheville areas, our Johns Creek surgery center is approximately 2 to 2.5 hours south via US-23 South or I-26 West to I-85 South.
