Radiology Technologist
New Braunfels,TX
Summary
I started my career at Ventura County Medical Center. It was the #1 Trauma unit and I enjoyed helping in the Emergency room tremendously. During my time there, I also worked in Surgery with the C-Arm, spent months at the children's Orthopedic Clinic, did portable X-rays on all floors (ICU, NICU, Pre/Post Operation, Routine Patients, E.R) My time there was from 2004-2012.
We moved to Crestline almost 8 years ago. I accepted a X-Ray/Medical Asst/Lab tech/office staff job in a small but busy office. I have enjoyed this work very much. I love patients and helping people. It was a joy to build relationships with my community. The Doctor has retired.
I am looking for my next adventure in medicine. I am very versatile and look forward to joining a team; I want to share my experience and compassion for others.
