PERSONAL STATEMENT FOR INTERNAL MEDICINE CLINICAL ROTATION The physician should look upon the patient as a besieged city and try to rescue him with every means that art and science place at his command (Alexander of Tralles). My decision to enter internal medicine as the next part of my venue responds to several driving forces. Besides deciphering the wonders of the human body, I know how important is to deal with the prevention, diseases detection, and treatment of adult illnesses.
Health care is a term that describes a broad range of services. Members of a health care team range from family members to neurosurgeons, but each member of a patient’s health care team plays a critical role in optimizing patient care. Therefore, it is important to recognize and appreciate all the players in the medical field and their contributions to health care. I was drawn to the medical field because of my love of science and endless curiosity. However, it was not until high school that I narrowed my science passion down to human science.
I can listen actively and attentively to patients and other healthcare professionals, and I am able to communicate effectively and clearly with them. I am comfortable working in teams and understand that effective communication is critical to building a cohesive and collaborative healthcare team. Regarding my academic record, while there have been challenges along the way, I have learned from those experiences and grown as a student. I have taken steps to address areas of weakness, such as seeking additional tutoring and developing better study habits.
I like to be involved with the learning process by using all of my five senses and through hands-on activities. For many years, I have had the strong urge and desire to study in the field of radiology. Because I obtain information best by learning visually and through hands-on experience - I am blessed with the opportunity to shadow fellow intelligent radiologic technicians at the Uvalde Memorial Hospital. During my time there, I obtained very crucial information. After reading and comprehending information obtained from radiologic textbooks, I was able to link the details and facts together from learning through my hands-on
Early on in medical school, I began inquiring about available interest groups and reaching out to physicians to complete case reports with and shadow on my free days. Being the vice president and now the current president of the Seldinger Society at the University of South Dakota has allowed me to grow in a leadership position while furthering my passion for radiology. These experiences showed me that I enjoy mentoring in the field, learning and teaching radiology-related material, and the day-to-day tasks of a radiologist. With technology continuously advancing and the continuous increased usage of imaging, radiology provides endless opportunities for lifelong learning and evidence-based practice to benefit patients. At the annual ASSR meeting where I presented a poster presentation, I had the opportunity to meet residents and attendings in the field from across the country.
The level of care that the varying healthcare professionals provided to these patients was fascinating and became intrigued to a career path in the medical field. Over the next couple of years, I narrowed the possibility
My interest in technology and curiosity of the human anatomy perfectly binds together in Radiography, especially in the treatment aspect, which is what really caught my attention about this course. I was highly fascinated by the scientific aspect of the course, and look forward to studying the technological approach to medicine – learning to use advance imaging techniques, such as X-rays and MRI Scans. Inspired by my parent’s hard work in healthcare, I was determined to develop an empathetic approach towards other people and eventually gained the desire to be at the heart of modern medicine, by wielding the latest imaging technology to cater to the needs of others. Health and Social Care, English Language and Applied Business, all three consist of abundant coursework. Simultaneously juggling coursework pieces throughout the year has allowed me to develop great work efficiency and organisation – which I apply in everyday life.
The cost of education compared to the possible starting salary makes the radiology technician an attractive direction to achieve the goal of a medical related
I am an experienced hardworking, reliable and motivated Senior Nurse. I lead by example and thrive on challenges. I am able to demonstrate excellent communication skills and this is evident when working well within the multi-disciplinary team (MDT). I have worked in Alder Hey children’s Hospital for fourteen years, working initially within the Oncology unit for eight years were I acquired a vast knowledge of sepsis.
My first rotation that took place in the operating room, made me solidify how I wanted to guide my future. The anesthesiologist working behind the surgical drapes continuously ensuring the patients’ well-being aligned with why I joined medicine. It is the opportunity to provide patients with optimal care before, during, and after medical procedures, and the ability to work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals in a team-based approach to provide the best outcomes for patients. Anesthesiology is a rapidly evolving field, and I am excited to be part of a profession that is at the forefront of innovation in patient care. As an anesthesiologist, I will be responsible for assessing patient needs, creating individualized anesthetic plans, and administering
Radiomics lies at the juncture of what I believe to be extremely exciting science in the coming future of personalized medicine. This is what prompted me to approach Dr. Rivka Colen (desired mentor), of the Department of Diagnostic Radiology, to conduct research in her lab. An interplay between research and clinical treatment such as the way Dr. Colen implements will be one of the grounds that I intend to structure my own practice around. The MD Anderson 1st Year Medical Student Program would help me achieve the first steps towards conducting research in my career as a physician-scientist.
I see the core values of respect and dignity, commitment to quality of care, compassion, improving lives, working together for patients and everyone which is absolutely vital in my daily work. I’m excited to bring my ability to remain entirely calm in difficult and stressful situations; my eagerness of continuous improvement and unwavering passion for ensuring that quality care is provided to all
The journey to becoming a diagnostic radiologist is going through college, medical school, MCAT(Medical College Admission Test) testing, an internship, a residency, and a fellowship (Callie Torres umhs-sk.org). Radiology also has many subspecialties which require another one to two year fellowship. Though there are many to choose from, the highlight for this essay is specifically Diagnostic Radiology which happens to have a desirable 1 year fellowship. Once finished with all the requirements to become licensed and certified looking for employment will be easier than completing the education needed. The demand for Radiologists is exceedingly high which in turn makes it so that the salary is being driven up.
Through my studies of human expression and its reflection of how people deal with world events in different ways, I developed sensitivity to other worldviews that continues to prove useful through my daily interactions with people of different backgrounds. I have learned that just like art, medicine involves pattern recognition and derives insight from experiences. Similarly, what I especially enjoy about being a medical assistant is interacting with patients on a daily basis and getting to be a part of their medical experiences, even if it is just by lending an ear. The experiences on my path to a career in medicine have made me want to make a real, tangible difference in the lives of those around me – a difference that leaves my patients in a better condition than they were in before I met them.
With the shortage of Radiologists and with the expansion of radiology technology, the need for radiologist assistant has great increased in the past year. Radiologist Assistants are comparable to a physician’s assistant. Both of these jobs assist doctors in performing advance medicine. According to the American Society of Radiologic Technologists, radiologist assistants are registered radiographers who have additional education and certification that qualifies them to serve as radiologist extenders (IN TEXT). The extra education allows a higher pay scale and qualified to perform more procedures.
