Georgia Proton Treatment Center

The Georgia Proton Treatment Center, operating as the Emory Proton Therapy Center, is a premier cancer treatment facility located in Atlanta, Georgia. It is the only center in the state providing proton therapy, a highly precise form of radiation treatment that uses protons to target tumors while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. The facility features advanced technology, including a Varian ProBeam cyclotron and pencil beam scanning capabilities. It operates through a clinical partnership with Emory Healthcare and the Winship Cancer Institute, treating a variety of adult and pediatric cancers. In early 2026, the center's owner, Georgia ProtonCare Center, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, with Emory University acting as the stalking horse bidder to acquire the facility and ensure uninterrupted patient care.
