A new oral surgeon in Albany is offering services patients previously couldn't get in Albany.

Dr. Brad Harris is the only board certified oral maxillofacial surgeon in South Georgia.

He performs facial surgery for trauma patients as well as oral surgeries and is fully equipped to administer general anesthesia at his office on Pointe North Blvd.

"I came to Albany to be a part of the community and I think this is a great place for business. I think this place has a lot of potential for the future. It's a great medical community and I would love to see Albany grow and thrive. I want to support the chamber of commerce with my business," said Dr. Harris.

Dr. Harris also does reconstructive facial surgery and is a licensed anesthesiologist.
