Key Highlights

- The Adamsville clinic will open in June 2026, while a larger pediatric-focused Grady medical facility in Union City is scheduled for 2028.

Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta has announced plans to expand its pediatric healthcare footprint across the southern metro Atlanta region with two new facilities in Adamsville and Union City. The expansion is part of the hospital system’s broader strategy to ensure families remain within 30 minutes or less of pediatric healthcare services.
The first new location, Children’s Adamsville Pediatrics, is scheduled to open on June 29 at 3571 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive SW in Adamsville. The clinic will provide pediatric primary care services for patients ranging from newborns to young adults up to age 21.
According to the organization, the facility will be staffed by a rotating team of pediatricians from its Hughes Spalding Primary Care Clinic.
Beyond patient care, the Adamsville site will also serve as a clinical training location for residents from Emory University School of Medicine and Morehouse School of Medicine, offering hands-on pediatric experience for future physicians.
Union City Facility to Focus on Comprehensive Pediatric Services
A second, larger expansion project is planned for Union City, where Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta will occupy an entire floor in a new Grady Health System medical building. The pediatric-focused facility is expected to open in 2028.
The Union City location will provide a broader range of pediatric services, including primary care, behavioral healthcare, and mental health support for children and adolescents. The facility will be located on Campbellton Fairburn Road and is intended to strengthen healthcare access for underserved communities in the growing south metro area.
Leadership at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta described the expansion as part of a long-term commitment to improving healthcare accessibility across Georgia. Paul Brown, Chair of the organization’s Board of Trustees, said strong pediatric care contributes directly to healthier communities and reaffirmed the system’s commitment to expanding quality care access statewide.
The organization also indicated that additional regional expansion opportunities are currently under evaluation as it continues building out its pediatric care network.
The move reflects increasing healthcare investment in community-based pediatric services as providers seek to improve preventive care access, reduce travel burdens for families, and address rising demand for pediatric behavioral health resources across metropolitan areas.
