Who We Help
Our doctors care
for patients in the
Atlanta community.
Most of our patients reside near the Buckhead community. We also have many patients that commute from up to 60 miles away. Most of our patients are 30 to 50 years of age.
Our typical patient is in good health and in the stage of their life where they are becoming aware of the importance of being proactive with their health to ensure they stay healthy. Our patients typically come to the clinic for yearly exams and most prefer to come in quarterly to keep close tabs on their health.
