About Whitefoord

In 1995, Dr. George W. Brumley, former Chair of Pediatrics at Emory University School of Medicine, and his former student, Dr. Veda Johnson, established Whitefoord, Inc. to address the health and educational needs of children and families of the Whitefoord Elementary School District in southeast Atlanta. Through an in-school health center and a child development program, Dr. Brumley and Dr. Johnson made a crucial connection between health and academic success: healthy children stayed in school and achieved more.

From its roots in health and education, Whitefoord soon grew beyond the in-school health center at Whitefoord Elementary School to meet even more clinical needs of children and families. Whitefoord established as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and after 17 years of operating health centers only in schools, opened its first-ever community-based Family Medical Center in the Kirkwood neighborhood in the fall of 2012 to treat children and adults.
