A: Musculoskeletal radiologist

Q: Why did you choose to work in the field of radiology and, specifically, your subspecialty?

A: I enjoy the technical aspect of the field. I’ve always enjoyed engineering, structures and mechanics, so orthopedic imaging seemed to best fit my interests.

Q: How did you get started with NWR?

A: Adaptable

Q: Why would you tell someone to work for NWR?

A: It is a good job with good people. Northwest Radiology is a great place to work, and Indy is a great place to live.

Q: How have changes in technology affected your job and the radiology industry in general?

A: Most changes have been beneficial: picture archiving and communication system (PACS); continually evolving technology in medicine in general; and improved voice recognition have all allowed us to be more productive and faster in interpreting patient exams. Improved imaging resolution has resulted in better accuracy with image interpretation.
