Instead, I went to Emory Hospital in Midtown Atlanta. From Valet to actually entering the hospital, this facility and its entire staff are AMAZING! They make going to the hospital and having a doctor's appointment a pleasant experience. And, the CAFETERIA IS DELISH! Their Fried Chicken and Peach Cobbler brings tears to my eyes because I am soooo guilty of enjoying every scrumptious bite!
