get to know me

I chose my specialty because...

I began my career with Dayton Children’s in the NICU where I regularly interacted with the pediatric surgeons and their patients. Many years later I was presented with the opportunity to join the surgeons as their first ever nurse practitioner. I eagerly accepted the challenge. Over time the NP role has evolved to better serve our surgical patients and families.

I chose to work at Dayton Children's because...

the organization’s mission is to improve the health status of all children and be the first choice for children’s health. Excellent pediatric care is at the center of all that is done at Dayton Children’s.

Dayton Children's is special because...

we are a big enough facility to offer a vast number of pediatric specialty services. However, we are not so big that we lose sight of the individual patient and the patient’s family.

I have not one issue with the staff at Children's. EVERYONE is nice and pleasant, from security to the clinical staffing. Thank you, my daughter loves coming to her appointments in stead of dreading them.

Hi. I wanted to tell you that I thought Linda Holland was the absolute best medical provider that I have ever met personally or had my children see ever. She was so attentive, listened and truly cared about my son and me so I just wanted to tell you that she is truly exceptional and I'm very happy that I got to see her, so thank you. Please pass that along to her.

Everyone at Dayton Children's treated us great but most importantly they made my son comfortable and put him at ease which we can never say thank you enough for.
