Dr. Sanjay Gupta, MD

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, MD, is a board-certified neurosurgeon in Atlanta, Georgia. Emory University identifies him as associate chief of neurosurgery at Grady Memorial Hospital and an associate professor at Emory. His clinical work sits alongside his public role as a medical journalist.

Patients who know Sanjay Gupta from television still need to arrange care through a clinical team. A hospital affiliation does not establish that a particular doctor accepts new patients or has an appointment available. Confirm the treating clinician and the reason for your visit before you make travel plans.

Medical training and board certification

Gupta earned his Bachelor of Science at the University of Michigan in 1990 and his medical degree there in 1993. He completed his neurosurgery residency at Michigan in 2000. These dates appear in the university’s May 14, 2026 alumni interview about his medical school commencement address.

Emory’s faculty biography for Sanjay Gupta identifies him as a diplomate of the American Board of Neurosurgery. Board certification and medical training describe professional qualifications; an individual treatment decision still depends on a clinical assessment.

Arrange care through the hospital

Grady Memorial Hospital is at 80 Jesse Hill Jr Drive SE, Atlanta, GA 30303. Call 404-616-1000, the hospital’s published main and appointment number, to ask about the appropriate neurosurgical service. Ask whether a referral, prior imaging or other records are required for your visit.

Request the exact building, department and check-in location when an appointment is confirmed. A map of the hospital campus can guide you to the site, but it does not identify the room for a specific consultation. Keep the appointment instructions from your care team with you.

Outpatient hours and emergency access are different

Grady lists general outpatient care from 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday, on its official hospital location page. These are local Atlanta hours in the America/New_York time zone. They describe the hospital’s outpatient service, not Gupta’s personal office schedule.

Contact the clinical team for Gupta’s individual appointment times and any weekend or holiday arrangements. Round-the-clock emergency care does not establish availability for a routine consultation. Only the verified weekday outpatient hours appear in this profile’s opening-hours list.

Records, insurance and questions for your visit

Ask the office which reports or images to send and how to transfer them. Bring a current medication list, allergy information and a short account of the concern you want assessed. You can keep your own questions together in HealthWavy’s personal health workspace before the visit.

Confirm your exact insurance product, network participation and any referral or authorization requirements with the hospital and insurer. This profile does not list an accepted-plan roster because Gupta-specific coverage was not verified. Language support, fees and new-patient availability also need confirmation with the clinical team.
