About Augusta University Health

We're a community of caregivers made up of the most sought after and specialized medical and research professionals in their fields, offering the most advanced health care services in a 478-bed adult hospital, the 154-bed Children’s Hospital of Georgia, the Georgia Cancer Center, and more than 80 outpatient clinics across Georgia and South Carolina. From the most comprehensive and complex cancer care and telestroke network, to the region’s only Level I Trauma Center and only Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for critically ill infants with an air transport team – we do what others simply can't.

Since 2000, Augusta University Health System has been the only regional health provider to have its physicians consistently ranked among the top 1% in the nation by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. and included in the national database of America’s Top Doctors for cancer, neurology, cardiovascular, gastroenterology, otolaryngology, urology, rheumatology, and plastic surgery services. But we didn’t stop there. Over 50 AU Health physicians are among the top doctors in the region, making them some of the most experienced, educated and awarded professionals throughout the Southeast.

What do we offer that others can’t? Life-saving expertise and care. Our list of “onlys” continues to grow each and every year and includes the highest-level Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, the only pediatric emergency department with fellowship-trained physicians, a statewide telehealth network, bone marrow and stem cell transplant program, chest pain center, and Electrophysiology Lab in the region. It’s no wonder why we serve as the regional coordinating hospital for Georgia’s East Central District and help respond to statewide natural disasters and events impacting the health of Georgians everywhere. Additionally, our teams travel to cities and towns throughout Georgia and South Carolina to teach the care techniques of tomorrow to patient providers today.

Why do people choose us? Our overarching commitment to a better tomorrow. That means we step up and out each and every day to solve the problems we’re uniquely qualified to tackle. Like the COVID-19 pandemic and mobilizing the resources necessary for statewide testing and screening. And, when COVID-19 vaccines became available, we were there, too, launching vaccination locations in permanent and underserved locations throughout the two-state. We know our calling, and we’re always here to answer. Our commitment is evidenced through the generous support of corporations and non-profit organizations across the county including Augusta National Golf Club, the Community Foundation of the CSRA, Peach Bowl, Peach State Health Plan, and many more.
