Linda Ireland moved to Anchorage in 2004, after completing her cardiology fellowship at Brown University. She completed her internal medicine residency at Penn State, Lehigh High Valley Hospital in 2001, and her medical school training at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1998. She specializes in general adult cardiology, including echocardiography and nuclear cardiology.

Dr. Ireland has been an active member of the executive board for over 9 years. When the pandemic hit, and health care delivery was challenged in ways we have not seen, she decided to pursue further education to deepen her business acumen and leadership skills. In 2022, she received her MBA from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Kenan-Flagler business school.

She is honored to serve as president of AHVI, 2023-2026. She is also actively involved in leadership in the American College of Cardiology, serving as ACC Governor of the Alaska Chapter, 2022-2025. When not working, she enjoys time with her family both in Alaska and back east in New Jersey. She loves outdoor activities, especially bicycling, camping, and fishing.
