“This was my first time seeing Dr Hodges and it was I was really happy with my experience. I hardly had to wait before being seen. After a quick evaluation by the assistant, Dr. Hodges came right in and I was really impressed with his manner and knowledge and advice for treatment. I would definitely recommend Advanced ENT”

About Dr. Kenneth Hodge

Dr. Hodge is truly a loyal Louisville native. To begin with, he credits his parents, Dr. Kenneth and Mrs. Yvonne Hodge, for their great guidance as he worked his way through “some of the finest public school opportunities in the country at the time. Dr. Hodge participated and enjoyed early success in academically advanced programs at St. Matthews Elementary and Waggener High School. Later, the fact that he was from a large family would mean that he would have to turn down scholarships from Harvard and MIT. But his hometown once again provided him with a rich academic opportunity as he enrolled in the Speed Scientific School at the University of Louisville (U of L) in 1975. With advanced placement credits and an intensified curriculum, Dr. Hodge was able to begin medical school at U of L a mere two years later and, upon completion of his studies, stayed on to join one of the most highly regarded general surgery programs in the country. While Dr. Hodge was already keenly aware of his deep interest in head and neck anatomy, he became truly inspired by the new, charismatic faculty in otolaryngology. Consequently, he shifted his training to focus on ENT. During his training, Dr. Hodge recognized the need for a highly specialized review of basic sciences within the ENT field and developed the curriculum for a month-long study program that played a key role in helping the department become the 3rd highest scoring group in the United States on national exams. He subsequently received his board certification. Dr. Hodge went on to accept a fellowship at the world-renowned cancer center, M. D. Anderson Hospital and Tumor Institute in Houston, TX. He declined both a highly coveted professorship in Houston and the offer to become Chairman of the new ENT program being launched at the University of Kentucky (UK) to return home to Louisville, the city he loves.

Dr Hodge is great! Saw him for ringing/thumping in right ear. After describing my symptoms and answering several of his questions, he had a good idea what the source of my issue was. He explained where it made total sense and also recommended things I can do to prevent symptoms in the future. Professional, experienced and sincere interest in my issue. HIGHLY recommend.
