About Melinda M. Holliday, MD, FAAP

  • Dr. Holliday grew up in Las Vegas, NV. In her free time, she can be found spending time with her young daughter and two dogs, doing yoga, or being active outside. Dr. Holliday’s favorite area locale is the Hike & Bike Trail.

I chose a career in medicine and specifically pediatrics because I believe education and prevention are key to optimal health. I have a specific passion for adolescent medicine, and I really enjoy developing long-term relationships with my patients and their parents based on mutual respect and trust. It is so much fun to watch my patients grow up, and it is my honor to play a role in their physical and emotional development.

    My daughter did get tested for flu and Covid and those results came in about 20 minutes later after we left, but the doctor we saw was fantastic and she called in a prescription due to her testing positive for flu. we had also discussed if she did come out positive that she would send a prescription, and she did exactly that. Very excellent service.
