The Medical Center in Carrollton has served thousands since its opening in January 1979. The medical center is driven by the goal of management to provide the best possible care for the people of Pickens County and the surrounding area. The staff has grown from five doctors in the beginning to eighteen at present. The center has a 37 bed medical-surgical unit with one registered nurse for every two patients. The Cardiology, Radiology and Ultra-Sound unit is modern and efficient and magnetic resonance imaging is routine.
Treatment includes ultrasound, heat, weights, electrical impulses and whirlpool therapy.
The surgical service ranges from routine to the highly sophisticated. The emergency room provides 24 hour service and three trauma rooms are ready for use at all times. The maternal-child care unit provides care during pregnancy, delivery and care of the infant through out the first month of life. The Pickens County Medical Center offers medical service far beyond what is usually available in a small town or rural area.
