For Southeast Tennessee patients, Atlanta Bariatrics offers something rare: the quality of a nationally recognized bariatric program without the stress of navigating a major metro hospital system. Our Suwanee office is a straightforward drive south on I-75 from Chattanooga, and patients who make that trip are met with a team that has spent decades redefining what bariatric care can look like. Dr. Christopher J. Hart and Dr. William H. Johnson are among Georgia's most decorated bariatric surgeons, and our comprehensive program, from advanced robotic surgery to in-office dietitian support and cross-state insurance coordination, is built to make the experience seamless for Tennessee patients.
