i am currently seeking a challenging career opportunity in a radiology practitioner assistant/ radiology specialist assistant capacity and am submitting my resume for your review.  in advance, thank you for your time and consideration.

 

as demonstrated in the accompanying resume, my professional qualifications include 29 years of progressive experience in performing radiologic and ct procedures.  i possess a depth of knowledge and am licensed to practice in the entire scope of a radiologist, thereby permitting a facility to continue to operate and inject contrast for ct and mri without the radiologist present on site.  in my present position, i administer up to 25 contrast injections daily for x-ray, ct and the mri areas, and am responsible for ordering all pharmaceuticals.  my superior communication skills have consistently proven instrumental in my success at working with a high volume of patients and at training and in-servicing new pas and nurses.  i am adept at quickly adapting to constantly changing settings and conditions while continually providing excellent patient-specific care.  my educational background includes a b.s. in radiologic sciences/health care administration, and substantive post-graduate training and certification. 

 

as an employee, you will find me to be a driven team player committed to supporting you in achieving your objectives through superior performance.  i am confident that i could be a valuable asset to your practice, and look forward to interviewing with you in the near future.

 

sincerely,
