Medical Center is an at-grade subway station inSandy Springs, Georgia, serving theRed Line of theMetropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) rail system. It serves thePill Hill neighborhood ofPerimeter Center, the location ofNorthside Hospital Atlanta (the country's busiest birthplace),St. Joseph's Hospital, andChildren's Healthcare of Atlanta atScottish Rite andDeVry University. North of Medical Center isDunwoody station and south isBuckhead station. This station's platforms are long enough to accommodate 8-car trains.

The station is located just west of theFulton/DeKalb County line. The portion in DeKalb County is currently not developed and is a part of MARTA's portfolio for potentialtransit-oriented development. Of note, the station was constructed in 1996 when this portion of Fulton County was unincorporated; Sandy Springs was incorporated ten years later.
