Community Hospital-Fairfax has announced a partnership with Mosaic Medical Center – Maryville and Lorraine Dodson, M.D., FAGOG, to provide a gynecology specialty clinic and gynecological surgery services.

Dr. Dodson has cared for women in her OB/GYN practice for over 30 years. Dr. Dodson earned her bachelor’s degree in chemical biology from Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. She attended the University of Missouri-Columbia where she graduated cum laude with her medical degree as well as completed her residency.

“I’ve always enjoyed practicing in a small community where I can really get to know my patients and their families,” says Dr. Dodson.

Dr. Dodson enjoys gardening, hiking, running and spending time with her numerous dogs, cats and horses. She and her husband, also a physician, have three grown children.

“We are excited to bring Dr. Dodson and her experience in gynecological surgeries to CH-F. We recognize that these are services that the women of our community are traveling to receive so we are looking forward to bringing them back, close to home, for our patients,” Ann Schlueter, CEO, commented.

Dr. Dodson’s first clinic day at Community Hospital-Fairfax will be April 17, 2026. Call your primary care provider for a referral and to schedule an appointment.
