Multidisciplinary Approach at DekalbMedicalCenter Provides Wellness, Education
and Prevention
When a community grows, the need for larger hospitals and more services grows
with it. We see this happen a lot in smaller towns that are expanding or cities
as they grow. Such was the case in Dekalb County Georgia in the mid-1950s. The
answer was to come up with a new hospital that would have a variety of locations
to better serve the community and the DekalbMedicalCenter was born.
There are three hospitals associated with the Dekalb Medical Center: the Central
Campus, at Decatur and at Hillendale. The general phone number for all three
is 404-501-1000. The Central Campus is located at 2701 North Decatur Road Decatur
GA 30033 and the patient information phone number is 404-501-5200. Dekalb Medical
Center at Dekalb is located at 450 N. Candler Street Decatur GA 30030 and patient
information can be reached by calling 404-501-6700. The address for the DekalbMedicalCenter
at Hillendale is 2801 DeKalb Medical Parkway Lithonia, GA 30058 and the patient
information number is 404-501-8611. The website for the hospital, Dekalbmedicalcenter.org
has more information on specific sites as well as maps and directions.
There are many services and programs at the hospital. One of the things DekalbMedicalCenter
strives to do is to use a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare with their
patients and families that includes wellness, education and prevention programs
both at the medical centers and through community outreach. Some of the specialty
services at the Dekalb Medical Center include cancer treatment, women's health
issues, in-patient dialysis, cardiac intensive care and a Neonatal Intensive
Care Unit. By calling the main number or visiting the website you can get more
