General Surgery

Your primary care provider or medical specialist may recommend an appointment to see a surgical specialist. Dr. Hart and Dr. Johnson are highly experienced as general surgeons performing many newer, advanced minimally-invasive procedures. They are specially trained in advanced laparoscopic techniques and are supported by a highly-experienced multidisciplinary team. Using the state-of-the-art ambulatory facility, Atlanta General and Bariatric Surgery Center, their patients experience exceptional outcomes. When surgery is necessary, we can coordinate follow-up care closely with your primary care physician to ensure a speedy recovery.
