Award-winning Roswell clinic will bring car-side urgent care to Perimeter Center in 2027, just in time for cold and flu season.
DUNWOODY, Ga. — October 22, 2026 — SmartMED Drive-Thru, the Atlanta clinic that pioneered drive-thru urgent care in Georgia, has received approval from the City of Dunwoody to open its second location at 125 Perimeter Center West, in the Ashford Lane development. The new clinic, which will occupy the former PNC Bank building, is expected to open in January 2027.
SmartMED Dunwoody will offer drive-thru urgent care, letting patients be seen for everyday illnesses and minor injuries without leaving their car or sitting in a waiting room. The location sits just off the GA-400 and I-285 interchange, putting fast care within easy reach of Dunwoody, Sandy Springs, Brookhaven, Chamblee and Doraville families, as well as the tens of thousands of people who work in the Perimeter Center office corridor.
“We’re grateful to the City of Dunwoody for welcoming us. Bringing SmartMED closer to these neighborhoods means quality care that fits into real life, whether that’s between meetings or on the way home from school pickup.” said Dr. Luke Lathrop, Co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of SmartMED Drive-Thru. “
SmartMED opened in Roswell in 2022 with a simple idea: urgent care should be as easy to get as the rest of your day. Patients pull up, check in, and are evaluated by a licensed provider from the comfort of their vehicle. Common reasons for a visit include colds, flu, strep throat, sinus and ear infections, minor injuries and other everyday illnesses.
The approach has earned strong community support. SmartMED has been named Best Urgent Care three years running by Best of Georgia, My Roswell/Crabapple, and North Atlanta Readers’ Choice Awards.
The Dunwoody opening is timed for the height of cold and flu season, when demand for fast, convenient care peaks. Area residents can sign up to be notified the moment SmartMED Dunwoody opens its drive-thru lanes.
