Secondary Malignancies

William Hardeman Jr., DO, MPH

Dr. Hardeman is a general surgeon at Hamilton Physician Group-General Surgery in Dalton, Georgia. He obtained a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree in Public Health Administration at the University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida, and attended medical school at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine-Georgia Campus in Atlanta, Georgia. He then completed his residency training in general surgery at the OhioHealth Doctors Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.

“I realized that I wanted to be a physician when I was 10 years old,” says Dr. Hardeman. “As a young child, I watched my mother, an oncology nurse, care for her patients. That had a big impact on me.” Dr. Hardeman chose to specialize in general surgery because it often provides the opportunity for his patients to experience immediate results.

“North Georgia holds a very special place in my heart. I love the people and the natural beauty in this region. I have never felt more at home.”

Dr. Hardeman enjoys spending time with his wife and children, going to the gym, and watching college football.

Dr. Emadian worked with some of the world’s best in genetic research at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute for Human Genetics in Utah and is a fourth-generation mentee of Harvey Cushing, the father of neurosurgery in the U.S.

“I am very humbled by the training I have received. I feel so blessed in that regard. Most importantly, I share my mentors’ philosophy of patient care. Patients come first. I consider it a great honor and privilege to serve my patients. It is my goal to provide them with the same level of care that I would provide to my own family.”

“I always dreamed of having the ability to make a difference in the community that I live in. One of the dreams I’ve had is to put together a comprehensive neurosciences program where neurosurgery, neurology, rehabilitation, and pain management work together. All of the pieces of the puzzle are here at Hamilton Health Care System.”

In his spare time, Dr. Emadian pursues his interests in painting, photography, endurance running and cycling, gardening, cooking, and woodworking. “Most of all, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my family.”
