Summary
I have worked in the Radiology field for 21 years. I have the experience of working in a large hospital setting, as well as imaging centers. This dynamic has given me the ability to acquire diagnostic images on a range of many challenging patients. The confidence I have gained allows me to answer any questions from the patients of Doctors. It has also given me the confidence to work by myself and work through any obstacle I may come across. I have scanned many different types of patients and worked well with many Radiologist. I would like to learn more and teach what I have gained over my career.
