Linda Tannenbaum - Hero of the Month - July 2011

Linda Tannenbaum, ARRT, CNMT

Congratulations to Linda Tannenbaum for being selected by her peers as the HeartFirst Hero of the Month for July 2011.  Linda is a registered Radiology Tech as well as a Nuclear Medicine Tech who has been with HeartFirst since 2007 (excluding a short 7 months away).   She has 15 years of medical experience and is a graduate of Ole Miss and the University Medical Center of Mississippi.  A native of Mississippi with strong ties to Louisiana, Linda moved from Dunn, LA to Texas in 2004.

Linda is known as a “favorite of staff and patients” and her “demeanor is positively contagious!”  One of her co-workers commented that she “handles patients with compassion and finesse.” She “responds to problems with an objective approach and meticulously works through the options.”  The love, however, is not one-sided.  Linda says, “I love HeartFirst so much that I have worked here twice!  I feel that we all work together as a team, I can count on everyone, as they can count on me.”

Linda and her husband/best friend, David, will be celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary this fall.  They have two boys, Jason 28 and Alton 21 and a 15 month old granddaughter named Breeze.  Her love is also extended to her 5 “critters” (4 dogs and one 19 year old cat). 

Your HeartFirst family is glad you are back home!  Thank you for all that you do.  We are lucky to have you!
