1450 S Johnson Ferry Road
Sandy Springs, GA 30319
Phone: 678-344-8900
What is in this building
Here the clinic and the ambulatory surgery center share one building, so the consult, testing, procedure and follow-up all happen at one address. It is Advanced Urology's surgery center inside I-285, which lets intown patients have a procedure without a hospital admission or a drive to the suburbs.
An ambulatory surgery center has operating rooms, anesthesia and recovery space for procedures that do not need an overnight stay. It has no emergency department and no inpatient beds. For most urology procedures that setting fits well, and it usually means a time the practice schedules and a single facility fee.

Common questions
Can I book without my primary care doctor?
Usually not. Patients can schedule directly, but some plans will not pay for a specialist visit without a referral, so check yours. Referrals from intown primary care practices are welcome.
I was seen in Decatur. Will my procedure be here?
Possibly. Irvin Way has no operating room, so its surgical cases go to Johnson Ferry Road or to Snellville, depending on which drive suits you. Your chart travels with you inside Advanced Urology.
