Dallen Ormond's Portrait

About Dallen:

I hope this letter finds you all in good health and high spirits. As I sit down to write to you, I am filled with a mix of emotions—nostalgia, gratitude, and sadness—as I share some important news regarding my journey at Families First Pediatrics.

After much contemplation and reflection, I have decided to take a step into semi-retirement and relocate to the island of Kauai, where I will work in a critical access hospital helping underserved children. This choice enables me to embark on new adventures and devote more time to pursuing personal interests and fulfilling family commitments.

While I am excited about this next chapter in my life, it is with a heavy heart that I prepare to say goodbye to a community that has brought me so much joy and fulfillment. Working with your children has genuinely been one of the greatest joys of my life. I will forever cherish the memories of our time together, the smiles, laughter, and the milestones we celebrated. Each of your children has touched my heart in a uniquely special way, and I am deeply grateful for the trust you have placed in me to be a part of their growth and development.

Although my days in the office may be coming to an end, please know that my passion for pediatric care and my commitment to your families will remain. I have every confidence in the capable hands of my colleagues at Families First, who will continue to provide the exceptional care your children deserve. These are people I know and trust. If you decide to continue your child’s care with them, you’ll be in excellent hands.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your lives and for the many wonderful memories we have created together. I will hold each of you in my thoughts as I embark on this new adventure. My last day at Families First was August 25, 2025.

Wishing you and your families all the best, now and always.

Warm regards,
Dallen Ormond, PhD, NP, MBA

Parent Feedback

My kids have been going to Family First for 12 years! Family first has been so good to us. I have three kids that go. They love all of the doctors and nurses! The love that they can earn coins for prizes! I would recommend everyone to choose Family First if your child needs a new doctor!!
