Providing Chattanooga with Award-Winning Care

With so much to see and do here in Chattanooga, it’s no secret that many of our residents enjoy an active lifestyle. Luckily, our dedicated medical providers offer state-of-the art care to support this. From preventative, primary, and acute care to highly specialized services, our healthcare facilities make it easy for Chattanoogans to stay on top of their health and continue living life to the fullest.

The Chattanooga area is home to three large healthcare systems – Erlanger, CHI Memorial, and Parkridge – all of which are dedicated to providing comprehensive care to patients at multiple locations across the area. Chattanooga also features two award-winning rehabilitation hospitals: Siskin Hospital for Physical Rehabilitation and Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Chattanooga. Also in the city is Kindred Hospital, a long-term acute care hospital. Just a short journey outside of Chattanooga, one can find Tennova Healthcare’s Cleveland campus, as well as Hamilton Health Care System, which serves the North Georgia area.

The medical field is ever-evolving, and Chattanooga’s healthcare facilities remain on the forefront of innovation to provide the best care possible. Erlanger Urology became the first center in Tennessee to offer Focal One Robotic High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), the most advanced noninvasive technique for removing localized cancer, which has greatly improved outcomes for prostate cancer patients. 

Also leading the way with innovative treatments, CHI Memorial Chest and Lung Cancer Center ranked in the top 6% of the country for lobectomy for lung cancer and in the top 8% for esophagectomy surgeries by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons. Additionally, Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics opened a state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery center to offer outpatient orthopedic surgeries and pain management procedures – the only center of its kind in the region to employ robotic technology. 

As a result of their efforts, many of our local hospitals gained national recognition in 2023. Parkridge was ranked in Fortune/PINC AI’s “100 Top Hospitals” as the third best large community hospital in the country. For the 10th time, Erlanger was recognized by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association as a Gold Plus organization for stroke care. Erlanger was also recognized with the “Honor Roll Elite Plus, Advanced Therapy and Target: Type 2 Diabetes Honor Roll” achievement award for the third consecutive year. CHI Memorial’s Chattanooga and Hixson locations both received an “A” Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade, a national recognition for their achievements in protecting patients from preventable harm and error in the hospital.

In an effort to continue providing Chattanooga and North Georgia with top-tier care, many local healthcare groups are working to expand their facilities with new offerings that promise even stronger outcomes for patients. Siskin Hospital for Physical Rehabilitation broke ground on the Healing Gardens at Siskin Hospital, which consists of five outdoor spaces for patients to reflect, relax, and engage in specialized, targeted therapies. Siskin Hospital has also expanded their services into Northwest Georgia with a brand new outpatient physical therapy clinic located in Ringgold.

There is more to come in 2024, with Parkridge set to open a freestanding emergency room in the growing community of Soddy-Daisy. Additionally, in a unique partnership between two of our region’s largest hospitals, Erlanger and Parkridge are set to begin construction on Chattanooga East Surgicenter, a multispecialty outpatient surgery center that will bring their services to the East Brainerd community.
