Wellstar MCG Health stands as the academic medical hub of Augusta, GA, and the only academic health center for the region. As the primary teaching hospital of the Medical College of Georgia, the facility blends cutting-edge clinical care with a deep educational mission. Walking through its halls, you’ll feel the vibrancy of an institution where patient care, research, and teaching intersect daily.
The hospital’s service area extends far beyond Augusta, drawing patients from across Georgia and South Carolina who depend on its tertiary and quaternary care services. The Advanced Endoscopy Center is just one example of how Wellstar MCG Health invests in specialized programs designed to serve complex patient populations and train the next generation of physicians.
Recent capital investments — including a $3.5 million upgrade in anesthesia machines — reflect the system’s ongoing commitment to modern resources and infrastructure. Physicians here work in an environment that balances the rigor of an academic setting with the support of a large health system.
