About Us
Piedmont Henry Hospital first opened its doors on July 9, 1979 as Henry General Hospital. It was a small 104-bed hospital located in Stockbridge, Georgia offering health care services to a rural county of just 35,000 residents.
During the 1990s Henry County experienced phenomenal growth in its population. Determined to continue providing its community with high quality health care, the hospital grew rapidly as well. In 1995 Henry General Hospital was renamed Henry Medical Center and took on its vision to become the premier hospital on the south side of Atlanta.
Some 17 years later, Henry Medical Center embarked on a new journey, becoming a part of the Piedmont Healthcare family and taking on a new name – Piedmont Henry Hospital. As of January 1, 2012, Piedmont Henry Hospital is a 215-bed not-for-profit community hospital where leading-edge technology and first-class care come together in our centers of excellence in cardiovascular care, orthopaedics, surgery, critical care, women’s health, emergency services, radiation oncology and diagnostic imaging.
A dedicated team of cardiologists use highly specialized equipment in Piedmont Henry Hospital’s Cardiovascular Services Cath Labs to diagnosis and treat conditions of the heart and its vascular network.
Piedmont Henry Hospital’s Marcia G. Taylor Women’s Center offers spacious, luxurious, state-of-the-art labor & delivery rooms, a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and operating rooms designated specifically for gynecological surgeries.
Henry Radiation Oncology Center, the county’s only radiation oncology center, opened in July 2010 through a joint-venture between Piedmont Henry Hospital and Radiation Oncology Services (ROS). The 10,000 square foot, high tech Henry Radiation Oncology Center is located on the hospital’s main campus enabling patients the benefit of receiving radiation therapy close to home, resulting in a less adverse affect on daily living, work, and family.
Centrally located in Henry County is Piedmont Henry Hospital Outpatient Center providing urgent care, occupational medicine, and a comprehensive diagnostic imaging center including digital mammography, CT, ultrasound, MRI, x-ray and bone density.
The Urgent Care Center at the Piedmont Outpatient Center provides the residents of Henry County an alternative when illness or injury is in need of medical attention, but not severe enough for a trip to the emergency room.
