“I want to tell you how great it is to work with Linde. Having our Gastro Unit staffed weekly through a variety of locum services has really made me appreciate what a great job you guys do. You are always our first choice!”
- Pat Bryant
“Through the years I have employed myself with locums to meet varying needs. Since 2003, I have worked with Chris Rasmussen at Linde Healthcare. The job descriptions provided to me are always accurate, travel is made easy, and accommodations always acceptable. Although we have never met in person, I feel I have a friend in Chris at Linde. There are never any unpleasant surprises. I know that when I seek a job, Linde will do their best to match my needs with the available opportunities. Linde is my first choice when seeking locums work.”

“I have just completed my first search with Linde Healthcare and I wanted to compliment all of the members of your team. First, I found Melissa very easy to work with and always a pleasure to talk with on the phone. Andrea was quick with responses and accommodating to our needs. A special thanks to the credentialing team for the COMPLETE packet that was sent to me immediately with the presentation of the CV. I can’t tell you how many agencies I’ve worked with that require me to go back to them more than once for additional information. Thank you all for being patient with me during a very hectic time; you’ve made my life easier this week.”

“After working to build a permanent Hospitalist program in a semi-rural area for close to two years, we decided to use locums on a Nocturnist basis to fill coverage gaps while in the final stages of recruitment and initial stages of program development. I found Linde Healthcare to have competitive industry rates with the attention to detail and customer service that you might not find at some of the "big-name" locums firms. Linde Healthcare promptly presented well-qualified and interested candidates for our program and in as little as two weeks, we secured three locums physicians to cover our Nocturnist Hospitalist shifts for three months! Without the help of Linde Healthcare, we would not be able to start our new Hospitalist program this summer as planned. I have found their staff to be efficient, respectful, and a true partner through this traditionally stressful and time-consuming process! I would not hesitate to use Linde again for locums needs and would strongly recommend them for other hospital's needing temporary physician coverage.”

“Derek was able to match my needs and practice specifications. He gave me a thorough explanation of the opportunities that materialized and I was totally happy with my locums assignment. I am looking forward to future assignments with Linde.”
- Dr. T. Kelly
“I highly recommend Linde Healthcare for locum tenens Radiologists. Our success relies on quality physician procurement - transitional and permanent. Chris Rasmussen has been an asset in securing quality Radiologists for our facilities. Our needs usually require General Radiologists who can do all modalities, including light IR. Chris knows and understands the requirements for our transitional Radiologists and does an excellent job in screening candidates that have the necessary skills.”
- Bill Sweat
“Most in-house recruiters will admit that staffing locums can often be the least rewarding part of their job. Len Licata’s professionalism and follow-through have definitely made my life easier. Although I was initially reluctant to use a smaller firm, I have found that dealing with Len as a single point of contact vs. the myriad of contacts at the larger firms is far more efficient. Len is always available and I feel he has a personal commitment to our organization.”

“I have worked with Chris Rasmussen for a number of years. He's been great to work with. He is responsive and keeps in close contact. He is quick to resolve any issues that may arise. He has also helped us out on a number of occasions on extremely short notice.”
- Dr. Ron
“I have been working locums for the past two years and by far Linde is the best company I have worked with. The representative I have worked with is outstanding. Every issue, no matter how small, is dealt with promptly. His communication is superb and their payments fast. I get friendly reminders on upcoming assignments, timesheets, etc. I can even call the representative on his cell phone after hours for any issue. Linde has exceeded all my expectations.”
- Dr. Brian

“I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Linde Healthcare and Adrian Jacquot in particular for over a year now. I have been thoroughly impressed with his professionalism and ability to work with my fairly complicated scheduling needs. He always responds immediately to my requests, questions, and concerns. Any issues that arise are promptly resolved to my complete satisfaction. He also goes the extra mile to find me assignments. Lastly, he is constantly following up on my assignments to make sure they are up to his high standards. I offer my strongest recommendation for Adrian and his expert team to anyone looking for locums tenens work now or in the future.”
- Dr. Sean Birmingham, M.D.
“My experience with Linde Healthcare has been excellent, especially with my Hospitalist Team Leader, Joshua Powlishta. From the very beginning, he distinguished himself due to the warmth and sincerity of his personality, extreme professionalism, and reliability. He is very resourceful and I am continually impressed at his ability to consistently find job opportunities in which there is a good match between the physician and employer. In addition, he is an excellent source of information and presents the requirements and details relating to credentialing or job opportunity in an organized and timely fashion. His follow-up and follow-through is outstanding. Through him, Linde offers a level of support to me as a locum tenens physician that is superior. His sincerity, sense of humor, and integrity has made working with him a most satisfying experience.”
- Dr. Dolores J. Bacon, M.D.
“I have been associated with Linde Healthcare and Chris Rasmussen for the past 2.5 years. During this time, I have found Chris and his team to be very professional in their dealings with me. Chris responds in a forthright, timely, and efficient manner! He always follows up on my assignments and is constantly checking for future opportunities. I would strongly recommended Chris and his team for anyone looking for locum tenens assignments.”
- Dr. Jack C, Avalos M.D.
“Chris Rasmussen and Linde Healthcare have been providing outstanding support to our practice and hospital continuously for multiple years. As our group has experienced growth and turnover or had intermittent staffing needs, they have been completely effective in recognizing and fulfilling our needs in general and sub-specialty Radiologist staffing. With shortages of Radiologists and unexpected situations that can develop, it is extremely helpful and reassuring to have a very committed and effective partner in providing necessary Radiologist staffing. They have been indispensable to our practice and hospital.
“They have provided reliable, outstanding, motivated candidates who have accommodated very effectively to our practice and needs. Chris is immediately responsive and accountable for any issues that may develop.
“Whether on an ongoing basis or for short-term assignments, Chris and Linde have always come through for us. They have my complete confidence and highest recommendation.”

“I had the opportunity to work with Patricia Robinson, the Lead Privileging Coordinator. She was wonderful to work with and assisted in so many ways in helping me obtain a lot of information in a very short period of time. She followed up daily to see what outstanding items I still had and she followed up on every single one. She was really good to work with and it was a pleasure dealing with someone as professional and competent as she was.”
- Lynn Reaves

“I have been in a part-time, private, out-patient practice for 20 years and decided that some variety in work/patient population was in order; enter Senior Locum Tenens Consultant Jamie Robinson of Linde Healthcare who provided me with options to meet these changing professional needs and the expert care to confidently step into the exciting world of locums medicine. Jamie never lets her doctors forget that she is their advocate through and through and sees to it that every assignment detail is taken care of and every question answered. Like all beginning locums doctors, I had many apprehensions: Jamie honestly, thoughtfully, and thoroughly addressed each and every inquiry and personally saw to it that I was taken care of from start to finish. I know that I am in expert hands and so confidently look forward to working with Jamie on every assignment and for the rest of my career!”

“I have worked with Jan at Linde Healthcare for almost 12 years and have found her to always be a true professional. She is honest and truly keeps my best interest in mind.

“Linde Healthcare and Kendall & Davis are the top in their class of recruitment firms. They work not as our vendor, but as a valued partner in securing quality physicians for our practice. Linde team members are professional, dependable, forward-thinking, and operate with a high degree of integrity. Furthermore, I enjoy working with them.”

“Our hospital was faced with the need to develop a Hospitalist program on a very short time cycle. Within a month or so of approval to begin the program, Linde had locum tenens credentialed and on-site. While we continued to build the program and hire permanent physicians, Linde delivered a number of locum tenens physicians that kept the program alive. Not only did they provide access to candidates, but each one was well screened and easily credentialed. Several were offered permanent positions. I've been in the industry a long time and have worked with many agencies. The team at Linde is my first choice for locum tenens coverage.”

“I have worked with Linde Healthcare for the past year and have really enjoyed my experience with them. I had just finished my residency and wanted to explore different hospital settings before settling into a permanent position. Linde Healthcare afforded me that opportunity.
“Our consultant has been fantastic. Her professional attitude has made working as an Anesthesiology locum tenens physician a rewarding experience. She takes into account my best interests and she realizes what facilities will meet my specific standards. She is always there when I need to talk to her. She goes the extra mile to ensure that I am comfortable and informed every step of the way. I would recommend Linde Healthcare for any physician that is contemplating becoming a locum tenens physician.”
