Dr Hagemeyer has dreamed of taking care of babies and their families since she was a young child. Always the caregiver and nurturer, she found medicine and pediatrics as a way to combine her love of education, caretaking, and improving the lives of her patients and families.

She grew up in Fargo, ND and completed her undergraduate degree in biology and psychology from Gustavus Adolphus College in St Peter, MN. She moved to Iowa City, IA to complete medical school before moving to the Twin Cities for pediatrics residency and an extra year as a chief resident at the University of Minnesota. She lives in Brooklyn Park, MN and works as a pediatric hospitalist and newborn nursery physician part time, seeing the isolating and challenging aspects of the postpartum journey first hand. With a desire to help shape a different journey for new families, she is excited to join a Fourth Trimester practice to provide unconditional support on each individual patient’s journey.

Dr. Hagemeyer has a special interest in meeting her patients where they are, discussing goals, and designing a mutually acceptable plan to reach those goals safely with sanity intact. She also has a special interest in babies with some medical complexity or initial challenges that may have impacted initial bonding or adjustment to home.

She has been recognized as a Top Doc Rising Star by Minneapolis/St Paul Magazine in 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2022 and was awarded the University of Minnesota Physicians award for Clinical Excellence in 2022. She is a member of the Minnesota Breastfeeding Coalition, has been an IBCLC since 2017 and recently gained certification from the North American Board of Breastfeeding and Lactation Medicine.

As mentioned, she lives in Brooklyn Park, MN with her husband, 2 daughters, and dog. She has now entered the UBER-mama phase of life with 2 school aged girls who want to do ALL the activities. Their family enjoys hiking, camping, visiting new pools and water parks, and finding a warm sandy beach in the winter months.

Dr. Hagemeyer is passionate about newborn and new parent care and is excited to join you on your fourth trimester and/or lactation journey. Every baby is different, every birth is different, and every parenting experience is different. She looks forward to partnering with you to find the path to parenting that works for your family!
