Pediatrician Staff

Marc A. Tanenbaum, MD

Over the last 30 years, Dr. Tanenbaum has built a stellar reputation in the Atlanta pediatric health care community. An experienced, ivy-league-trained physician, Dr. T, as his patients affectionately call him, built a successful, traditional practice in Atlanta. As insurance parameters encroached upon the time available to spend with his patients, Dr. T thought there had to be a better way to take care of children and teens. He founded Priority Pediatrics, P.C. in 2009 to continue so he could practice pediatric and adolescent medicine, and deliver the type of medical care that he believes all patients desire and deserve.
