History & Legacy of Health Care: Dalton, Georgia

One hundred years ago on May 12, 1921, Hamilton Memorial Hospital opened in response to a worldwide flu pandemic.

Today, Hamilton Health Care System stands strong as a regional leader in healthcare, providing comprehensive heart care, innovative cancer care, state-of-the-art surgical services, and compassionate care to the residents of Northwest Georgia - our family, friends, and neighbors. It is our mission to provide each of our patients and their families with the highest level of continuity and compassionate care - each and every day.

Dalton-Whitfield County Joint Development Authority


Great Doctors, Great Medicine Since 1828.
