Outside the clinic, she and her family spend time in the mountains or at the Texas coast. They are active members of Alamo Heights Presbyterian Church, where Dr. Lindner chairs the Day School Committee and has served on the Session. Her family participates in Boy Scouts, orchestra, water polo, swimming, baseball, science olympiad, rocketry, and more.
