The Academy of Medicine in midtown Atlanta, Georgia houses the Medical Association of Atlanta. The Academy was designed by the Atlanta architecture firm of Hentz, Adler and Shutze, with R. Kennon Perry the project architect and Philip Trammell Shutze the supervising principal. The building was intended as a meeting place for Atlanta physicians.
By the 1970's the building had fallen into disrepair. The building was renovated in 1983 and is used by the public as well as the medical profession.

In 2008, Atlanta Medical Heritage, Inc. donated the Academy of Medicine to The Georgia Tech Foundation, Inc. due to lack of resources to maintain the facility.
