Dr. Natalie Hodge founded Personal Pediatrics after spending more than a decade working in a busy St. Louis pediatrics office where she saw up to 35 patients a day. Frustrated with the breakneck pace of today's healthcare system, Dr. Hodge was determined to find a way to deliver highly personalized and unhurried pediatric care.
In 2005, Dr. Hodge took an entrepreneurial leap, reinventing the lost art of house call pediatric medicine. She began practicing within a 10-mile radius of her home using a laptop, cell phone and her own car. She also worked with experts to create the infrastructure for the Personal Pediatrics model -- an innovative, secure, web-based portal for recordkeeping, claim filing and prescription services. Today, Dr. Hodge's house call practice in St. Louis serves as the model for the growing nationwide network of Personal Pediatrics affiliate pediatricians.
Dr. Hodge was born and raised in Kentucky, where she attended Murray State University and graduated summa cum laude with honors in biology and music in 1991. In 1995, she graduated from the University of Kentucky Medical School in Lexington with a focus in pediatric research. Dr. Hodge then moved to St. Louis where she completed extensive training at Saint Louis Children's Hospital at Washington University.
In addition to her duties as Founder of Personal Pediatrics, Dr. Hodge is a member of the AAP as well as the Quality Improvement and Innovation Network of the AAP. She and her husband, filmmaker Bradley Hodge, have three children.
