Academic Medical Centers

MCG is an academic medical center with three primary missions-- patient care, education and research. As an academic medical center, we must provide a full range of clinical services and maintain the infrastructure to foster education and research.

 

 

We provide technology-intensive services that require special expertise, equipment and units. The costs for doing so can be high, which places intense financial pressure on academic medical centers to remain solvent and to maximize limited resources for the greatest patient good.

 

 

Our physicians have the most up-to-date knowledge and training. Many of our health care professionals train the next generation of caregivers, while others conduct pioneering research that improves medical diagnosis, treatments and technology, bringing the medicine of tomorrow to patient care today.
