View Insurance Accepted

A native from the Baton Rouge, Louisiana area, I transferred to east TN to finish undergraduate and met/married my college sweetheart and became a resident of TN. I attended ETSU for medical school and love the mountainous, slower pace of life in the Appalachian mountains. I have been blessed with 2 grown sons (and a daughter in law). I enjoy spending time with my wife, family and friends, traveling, teaching at church, swimming, gardening and watching college football!

Dr. Hodgeson is very thorough. He never rushes. Takes all the time necessary. (This is the reason I left my last physician. It was more of a corporate/profit driven business model. Dr was always running behind, long wait times, and my exams always seemed rushed.)
