Construction for a new town clinic began in the fall of 1933. Doctor G. G. Hodges, formerly of Oswald, was running a well-established practice in the adjacent community of Kilsyth at the time of construction. A new office was needed along the Main Street of Mount Hope to provide the excellent doctor with better parking. Mrs. Hodges complained about the ill patients waiting to be seen around her home. The doctor would ease her complaints by adding the adjacent connecting side structure just a few years later.
