One of the many things that makes Dr. Lindman unique is that he operates a completely solo practice in a system dominated by large groups and big bureaucracies.

That’s right, no receptionist, nurse, or staff of any kind. Dr. Lindman is dedicated to his patients’ care and well-being, as shown in the relationships he builds with them. When a person contacts Dr. Lindman’s office, they will be dealing directly with… Dr. Lindman. Not a receptionist or an assistant. When a patient arrives for the visit, the patient is greeted by… Dr. Lindman. He handles every aspect of the visit. He does the intake, takes the patient’s vitals, does the examination, and answers any questions that the patient might have. Dr. Lindman feels that this additional time allows him to get to know his patients better and fully understand any issues they might be having. This type of care is a throwback to an earlier time. Although Dr. Lindman develops relationships with his patients the way doctors did in the past, he is completely on board with modern technology in diagnosing, treating, and keeping accurate electronic medical records. Dr. Lindman also uses telemedicine in his practice when appropriate.

Dr. Lindman decided to become a doctor at a very early age. He knew that was his path when he was just 11 years old. He said that he realized that although everyone appeared different on the outside, it intrigued him that everyone looked pretty much the same on the inside. Although, as a young man and throughout his college and medical school years he worked many different jobs, he was laser-focused on becoming a doctor and knew that was his destiny. Dr. Lindman enjoys solving problems. When a patient has an issue, he immerses himself in finding a solution. Patients are often pleasantly surprised to find that there is little to no waiting time when they arrive for an appointment. He is a stickler for time; therefore, his patients don’t have long waits that have become the norm with many doctors today. His efficiency and attention to detail allow him to operate a solo practice successfully to benefit his patients. Dr Lindman relies heavily on technology to maintain an open line of communication with his patients.

Operating a solo medical practice means hard work and long days and he likes it that way. He is quite driven and loves challenges. Being a perfectionist, he has found a way to make it all work and his patients are glad he has. 

Dr. Lindman has been practicing medicine for 30 years and has worked in group practices in the past. That experience has made him realize that what patients want from their primary care physician is good communication, a personal relationship, and a doctor who truly cares and is attentive to their needs. He has found that his solo practice is the way to attain these goals.

Dr. Lindman doesn’t get much time off, but when he does, he enjoys his 1957 Chevy, taking trips to the beach, and snowmobiling. As hard as he works, I think he certainly deserves it.
