Northside Hospital Cherokee Opens Second Medical Office Building

CANTON, GA — Northside Hospital Cherokee has opened its second medical office building which will provide five Northside Hospital services and more than 10 physician practices to the people of Cherokee.

On Wednesday, July 10, members of the Canton community gathered at Northside Hospital Cherokee for the official ribbon cutting of the facility’s second medical office building.

Billy Hayes, the chief executive officer of Northside Hospital Cherokee, joined Mayor Gene Hobgood in an address to members of the Chamber of Commerce, Northside staff and Canton community, congratulating the hospital on its recent growth and continued dedication to improving patient care in the area.

The new building, which officially opened with select practices on Monday, July 8, will include a range of new and expanded services for Cherokee residents.

“We’re really excited about this because it broadens and complements what the community can get locally, so patients have access to services all on one campus,” said Katie Person, Director of Operations for Northside Hospital Cherokee.

The building sits next to the campus’s first medical office building, spanning five floors and 125,000 square feet. Multiple floors connect to the first medical office building and main hospital.

“The connection of the floors allows services to easily bridge patient care across disciplines, promoting communication between the doctors and creating better outcomes,” Pearson said.

The building includes the highly-popular cardiac rehabilitation practice, which has almost tripled in size. Additionally, Northside has set aside 15,000 square feet for expected expansion and news practices. Services in the new space include:

• Northside/Canton Breast Care Center Imaging
• Northside/Canton Outpatient Imaging
• Northside Cardiac Rehabilitation
• Northside Infusion Center
• Northside Sports Medicine
• Arthritis and Total Joint Specialists
• Georgia Urology
• Medical Associates of North Georgia
• North Georgia OB/GYN Specialists
• Northside Cherokee Surgical Associates
• Northside Spine and Pain Specialists
• Southeastern Neurosurgical Specialists
• Supportive Care Clinic
• Sovereign Rehabilitation
• Laureate Medical Group

During his remarks, Hayes said Northside Hospital Cherokee has and will continue to grow to meet the needs of its community.

“People often say, ‘how long is the crane going to be up?’ and I say, ‘Hopefully forever.’ We know if the crane’s up then there’s progress being made, our hospital is growing, our community is growing,” Hayes said. “I couldn’t be prouder to say I’m a part of this community, this city and its accomplishments.”

Practices in the new medical office building are opening in a laddered schedule and will be fully open by October. To learn more about all the services offered at Northside Hospital Cherokee, visit their website.
