My family and I have lived in Dunwoody for 17 years, and our children have all attended Dunwoody public schools. We are enthusiastic supporters of Dunwoody culture, including sponsoring and/or providing medical support to

Founder, Owner and Medical Director.

Dr. Locarnini

Dr. Casey Locarnini  is the founder, owner and medical director of Dunwoody Urgent Care. “Doctor Loc” has over 28 years of experience as a physician. He has been Board Certified in Emergency Medicine since 2000.

Education and Service

  • Attended Tulane University School of Medicine on a Navy scholarship
  • Completed a rotating internship at Naval Medical Center, San Diego
  • Practiced aviation medicine as a Naval Flight Surgeon based in Washington, D.C.
  • Four years  supporting both Naval and Marine Corps aviation
  • Four year residency in Emergency Medicine, also at Naval Medical Center, San Diego
  • Two years supporting the Marines, this time as head of Emergency Medicine at Naval Hospital, 29 Palms, California, home of Marine Corps Desert Warfare training.

Civilian Life

Next, having proudly served as a Naval Medical Officer for over 10 years, Dr. Locarnini transitioned to the world of civilian medicine. He worked the next four years in both the Urgent Care and Emergency Medicine settings in the Atlanta Metro and Savannah/Fort Stewart areas. During his time in Emergency Medicine, Dr. Locarnini realized that he wasn’t able to give patients the attention and quality of care he felt they deserved.

Providing Urgent Care in Dunwoody

Dr. Locarnini was taught by the example of his father, a beloved small town doctor in rural California. He realized spending time with a patient, being attentive and really listening are essential to being a great physician. Continuing to follow in his father’s footsteps, Dr. Locarnini decided he would have to start his own practice. So, in 2005, “Doctor Loc” opened his walk-in urgent care clinic in Dunwoody. He has spent the last 14+ years dedicating himself, full time, to the health and well-being of the Dunwoody area residents and visitors. He remains the sole owner and medical director of the clinic.
