Radiology residency is nothing like what I experienced as a medical student.
We need to do a better job.. I knew exactly what Internal Medicine or Surgery residency would entail.
Looking for innovative ways to improve medical student exposure to Rads😃
Thank you everyone who has congratulated me virtually or in-person 😊
I’m extremely humbled to have been given this opportunity. I promise to serve my program and community to the best of my abilities😃
🌟We are pleased to announce that our superstar R2
@DrOverfieldMD

Best career advice I have received about professional development:
“Your CV should be a living, breathing document that is updated on a regular basis”
Make a date with yourself each month for a CV “check-in”
When requested, you will be ever ready with an “updated CV”
It was great to be back

tips from a resident: Everyone’s most favorite subject is themselves. If you can get an interviewer to talk about themselves while showing genuine interest then you have likely made an impact. Don’t discount the importance of ego during interviews

tips from a resident: If possible, choose a program that’s “resident run”. The more autonomy and responsibility you are given, the more you learn, as painful as it may be. Residency is not the time to have a “cushy” lifestyle.

Treat your nursing staff with respect, it’s never wrong to ask “what do you think we should do?”

Looking forward to reading all about it.
If you don’t get the result you hoped for remember that it doesn’t mean you didn’t work hard enough. “Luck” is still an important (unfortunate) factor.

tips from a resident: Your voice is important. During interviews, take a pause(s), change your pitch and inflections. Finish strong with a summary of why you are the best person for the position. Demonstrate confidence and competence.

If interested in Radiology bring an electronic device (computer, tablet, phone, etc.). While reading with the resident/fellow use the device to look up pertinent information about the cases you are reading. Great way to stay engaged!
